Free suite of software for ZWO line of products. Includes planetary, deep space and meteor capture, live stacking, and both deep sky and planetary stacking.

Software suite for monitoring a camera set up to continuously monitor the sky using a wide angle, fish-eye style lens. Provides timelapses and detects meteors.

Free (adds benefits with a subscription) web-based gallery that is useful for both storing images and related capture information and finding examples of images based on the target and equipment used.

Tool that excels in stacking images from varying exposures and focal lengths or different sessions and filters. Modest suite of post-processing tools included.

Incredibly fast tool for lucky imaging and planetary processing. Also handles deep sky objects and stacking.

Fast plate-solving (requires database download) that integrates with most software. Also does stacking and live stacking.

A universal set of drivers to control various pieces of astrophotography hardware.

Suite of calculators and field of view utilities to help maximize use of your lens and sensors (cameras).

Stacking software for planets and lunar/solar surfaces. See also AstroSurface.

Control software for Celestron mounts. Includes planetarium. Integrates with ASCOM.

Freeware for registering and stacking.

Open source software for controlling mounts.

Fast and efficient image viewer, resizer, and touch-up tool that supports a huge variety of image formats.

Software for imaging planets, the sun, and the moon using the 'lucky imaging' technique.

Free and open source image processing software.

N.I.N.A. offers a broad variety of capabilities. The toolset spans from choosing, framing, focusing, centering and imaging one or multiple targets and much more.

Powerful free plate-solving tool that is slower than other methods but accurately solves more images than any other tool that I am aware of. Also has a developer API for integration.

The cure for a good photograph. This is the ultimate photo planning software!

My 'gold standard' for astrophotography. PixInsight is to astrophotography what Photoshop and Lightroom are to more traditional photography. Steep learning curve but incredible suite of modules.

Scripts for balancing color channels, generating luminosity masks, and more. Link to source code.

This link is what you use in PixInsight as the repo source to auto-add the scripts.

Pre-processing for lucky imaging. Image detection, surface detection, centering, leveling, and more. Discontinued, but download is available via Player One site. See AstroSurface for a supported program that does the same only better and faster.

Planetary post-processing tool for aligning and sharpening images.

Free software for stacking images. Specializes in widefield images taken with mirrorless and DSL cameras.

Easy and flexible capturing tool. Sensor analysis, focus guide, polar alignment, imaging sequencing, and more.

Astronomical stacking and processing tool.

Free suite of software for Sony cameras. Has remote control, software-based intervalometer, browsing and editing tools. Not available on Linux.

Planetarium software that provides a 3D view of the sky, shows you a field of view based on your camera and lenses, and integrates with various acquisition software and mounts.

Web-based version of the popular planetarium software

Very helpful software to plan targets. You can choose the type, see how it will change altitude and decide what times to image, and even see a field of view. Also very helpful for planning mosaics.

Denoise software (noise reduction/image repair)

Includes ephemerides (see how a planet is rotated and the orbital positions of its moons) and de-rotation (for longer exposures, projects your image and re-aligns it based on timestamps). Also runs on Linux.
