[AstroPy] Project Examples

[Paul Kuin]

yes, it looks it has that as its new URL

look here for the original site:
https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/resources/software.html

There is also a python implementation (distributed in astroconda);

and of course if you need to know more about fits: fits.gsfc.nasa.gov
