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.

Small Wheel Idea: Build a model rocket that can reach at least 10,000 feet (3048 meters) Must include a onboard flight computer that tracks altitude, a camera and must be recoverable
https://openrocket.info/ download this to design and simulate the model rocket

Post Graduate Books on Rocketry
The thesis that is the basis for OpenRocket is really good and well worth reading.
- Someone knows a free software for pc for creation and simulations of rockets?

Any ways/tips to fix this?
model it in OpenRocket first and see where your center of pressure is. once you find that (it will give you distance in cm or in from the tip of the nose), balance it on your finger to find your center of mass / center of gravity. your Cg needs to be closer to the nose than your Cp. ideally, you want the Cg to be at least 1x to 2x the diameter of your body tube forward of the Cp. the body tube width is referred to as 1 caliber, or 1 cal, so you will see stability measurements expressed like 1.5 cal or 2.6 cal.

Designing rockets
I would start with downloading the open source OpenRocket program and playing with that. That could keep you busy for several weeks!

Need help picking a motor for my 3d printer Rocket!
As for picking the motor, rather than do guess work, if you haven't done so already, use a software like OpenRocket (https://openrocket.info/). You can recreate your rocket in it, and it will give you a selection of literally every single motor there is to simulate with. Just make sure the weight, the center of gravity, and the overall shape of your rocket is right so that you can make sure the simulations are accurate.

How do I find the max height using only Burn time, Thrust, and weight?
If you are going to be making rockets and simulating rockets, I highly recommend a software like https://openrocket.info/. Software like this is how most people design their rockets.

RocketPy's Version 0.13.0 is out!
No! It's RocketPy's Version 0.13.0 that is out now! Our biggest release so far accounts for many, many new features. 13, to be exact (actually, there are 22). The main ones stem from the Environment Analysis done both for EuroC Rocket Competition and Spaceport America Cup, which can now be accessed here: https://github.com/RocketPy-Team/RocketPy/blob/master/rocketpy/EnvironmentAnalysis.py

RocketPy - Open-source Python Library for Trajectory Simulations
RocketPy is an ongoing open-source project to create the next-generation trajectory simulation solution for High-Power Rocketry powered by our fast growing community.
What are some alternatives?
openMotor - An open-source internal ballistics simulator for rocket motor experimenters
AeroVECTOR - Model Rocket Simulator oriented to the design and tuning of active control systems, be them in the form of TVC, Active Fin Control or just parachute deployment algorithms on passively stable rockets. It is able to simulate non-linear actuator dynamics and has some limited Software in the Loop capabilities. The program computes all the subsonic aerodynamic parameters of interest and integrates the 3DOF Equations of Motion to simulate the complete flight.
RpiMotorLib - A python 3 library to connect various motor systems to a raspberry pi single board computer
xmidictrl - XMidiCtrl is an X-Plane plugin to use midi controllers within the flight simulator
dwsim - DWSIM is a Steady-State and Dynamic Sequential Modular Chemical Process Simulator for Windows, Linux and macOS.
PteraSoftware - Ptera Software is a fast, easy-to-use, and open-source software package for analyzing flapping-wing flight.
dogfight-sandbox-hg2 - Air to air combat sandbox, created in Python 3 using the HARFANG 3D 2 framework.
PyNBoids - This is a Boids Simulation, written in Python with Pygame.
PyDy - Multibody dynamics tool kit.
dython - A set of data tools in Python
flopy - A Python package to create, run, and post-process MODFLOW-based models.
