Welcome to the Astropy Project wiki!

The Astropy Project is a community effort to develop a single core package for Astronomy in Python and foster interoperability between Python astronomy packages. More information about Astropy is available from our homepage, and you can find the documentation at https://docs.astropy.org/.

Note: There are a lot of outdated pages in this wiki and not all of them are listed here. When in doubt, please reach out to the Astropy Project for clarification. Thanks!
