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.

Julia 1.10 Released
Astropy [0] lives at the heart of most work. It has a Python interface, often backed by Fortran and C++ extension modules. If you use Astropy, you're indirectly using libraries like ERFA [6] and cfitsio [7] which are in C/Fortran.
I personally end up doing a lot of work that uses the HEALPix sky tesselation, so I use healpy [2] as well.
Openorb is perhaps a good example of a pure-Fortran package that I use quite. frequently for orbit propagation [3].
In C, there's Rebound [4] (for N-body simulations) and ASSIST [5] (which extends Rebound to use JPL's pre-calculated positions of major perturbers, and expands the force model to account for general relativity).
There are many more, these are just ones that come to mind from frequent usage in the last few months.

License Adherence Help
I'm working on a pure Rust approximation of astropy. Up til now, I was able to recreate the intent by looking at an external API, but I'm moving on to functionality that I don't understand enough to implement without basically copying the code. Astropy uses the BSD-3 license, and it wraps the ERFA library which uses a custom license. My project currently uses the MIT license. My PR is here - my question is have I attributed everything correctly, or is there anything I need to change for everything to be above-board?

- I'm a mechanical engineer with a solid background in Python and experience earlier in my career in natural science/physics. Are there any meaningful, active, open source opportunities in space science?

Astronomical Calculations for Hard SF in Common Lisp
For folks who might be interested in astronomical calculations but who don't want to roll their own library, astropy (https://www.astropy.org/) is widely used by professional astronomers.

Looking to study data from JWST's spectroscopy instruments
I agree with the other commenter. Check out their github. If you’re looking to build your skills long term (and have some experience with python) it’s worth checking out astropy and their fits file handling routines.
