Proposed for the upcoming Fedora 23 Linux operating system, the Fedora Astronomy Spin aims to offer a complete desktop environment with a collection of applications targeted at amateur and professional astronomers alike. It would appear that GNU/Linux distributions are very popular among professional and amateur astronomers and astrophysicists, so creating a special edition for their needs seems like a smart move from the Fedora Project.
