Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

- NASA CoreFlight System (CFS)
- Examples of excellently-written projects.

C programming jobs?
I definitely recommend looking at https://github.com/nasa/cFS for some great pure C coding.

Resources for Space sector embedded programming
Nowadays there's a trend towards openness and reusability. There's frameworks like the NASA Core Flight System (cFS) and the NASA JPL F Prime framework. There's also workshops where all of us flight software engineers get together and discuss new research, trends etc: https://www.youtube.com/c/FlightSoftwareWorkshop

Ask HN: What open source projects go to space?
Core Flight System (cFS) https://github.com/nasa/cFS
NASA has a lot of open source projects including a bunch that don't "go to space" but are used in space related projects (check each project for contributor guidelines):
https://github.com/nasa/openmct - web based mission control software

ANN: NASA's Ogma
Your best bet is probably to read the documentation of the project itself, as well as documentation from the associated projects FRET, Copilot (https://copilot-language.github.io/documentation.html, https://ntrs.nasa.gov/citations/20200003164), and cFS (https://github.com/nasa/cFS).

Help finding flight software learning resources
Does anyone have any suggestions for learning to write flight software or have any resources to learn from? I'm not necessarily looking for a framework to learn either, unless you think I should be focusing on something like https://nasa.github.io/fprime/. At this point, I don't know what I don't know... what should I be focusing on?

What version of C++ does JPL use?
F´ (F Prime) is originally developed at JPL, which is written under the C++11 standard. The linked video should be based on JPL Institutional Coding Standard for the C Programming Language, which is a guideline for C. They should be using C++11 nowadays.

Mars Ingenuity helicopter breaks record for speed and altitude, NASA says
The navigation camera is something you can buy online, the other terrain camera is a Sony IMX 214, The flight software is on github, the altimeter is from sparkfun.
