Bug#904342: O: scilab-celestlab -- Library of space flight dynamics functions based on Scilab.
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
As I am no longer working on Scilab, I intend to orphan the scilab-celestlab package.
This is a pretty cool project. Used for the rosetta/Philae mission:

The package description is:
CelestLab is a library of space flight dynamics functions written in Scilab.
This library has been developed and is maintained by the CNES (Centre National
d'Etudes Spatiales) for mission analysis purposes. The library is used by CNES
for the trajectory analysis and orbit design for various type of missions.
CelestLab gathers in ten modules about 200 functions that allow mission
designers to perform various tasks such as: orbit propagation, attitude
computation, elementary manoeuvre computation, change of reference frames,
change of coordinates, three body orbit analysis. CelestLab has been validated
against the CNES flight dynamics reference software. Selected examples from
mission analysis typical studies are provided in the CelestLab help pages.
