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.
cFS
- 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).

Ask HN: What open source projects go to space?
https://github.com/nasa/trick - simulation for for all phases of space vehicle development
You should check out their github organization for all available projects (https://github.com/nasa).
Also, European things as well such as the ESA's github organization: https://github.com/esa, and Germany's DLR: https://github.com/DLR-SC.
Another good group to check out is TU Delft: https://github.com/tudelft, https://github.com/tudelft-iv and others.
Not to mention a bunch of open source CFD projects on github that are widely used and other similar tools. Again, not strictly software that goes to space, but you will find more of that too if you search for projects related to those mentioned above.
