<h1>About Astropy</h1>
<p> The Astropy Project is a community effort to develop a core package for astronomy using the <a href="http://www.python.org">Python programming language</a> and improve usability, interoperability, and collaboration between astronomy Python packages. The core <i>astropy</i> package contains functionality aimed at professional astronomers and astrophysicists, but may be useful to anyone developing astronomy software. The Astropy Project also includes "affiliated packages," Python packages that are not necessarily developed by the core development team, but share the goals of Astropy, and often build from the core package's code and infrastructure. </p>
<p>For more details on the plan for the project, you can read the <a href="http://docs.astropy.org/en/stable/overview.html">documentation overview</a>, or the <a href="http://docs.astropy.org/en/stable/development/vision.html">original vision</a> from when the project was founded. </p>

<h2>Acknowledging or Citing Astropy</h2>
<h3>In Publications</h3>
<p>If you use Astropy for work/research presented in a publication (whether directly, or as a dependency to another package), we would be grateful if you could include the following acknowledgment:</p>
<p class="citation"><cite>This research made use of Astropy, a community-developed core Python package for Astronomy (Astropy Collaboration, 2013).</cite></p>
<p>where <cite>(Astropy Collaboration, 2013)</cite> is a citation to the <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201322068" target="_blank">Astropy Paper</a> (<a href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2013A%26A...558A..33A" target="_blank">ADS</a> -
<a href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-bib_query?bibcode=2013A%26A...558A..33A&data_type=BIBTEX&db_key=AST&nocookieset=1" target="_blank">BibTeX</a>). If you wish, you can also include a link to <cite>http://www.astropy.org</cite> (if the journal allows this) in addition to the above text.</p>
<h3>In Presentations</h3>
<p>If you are giving a presentation or talk featuring work/research that makes use of Astropy and would like to acknowledge Astropy, we suggest using this logo on your title slide:</p>
<img src="http://www.astropy.org/_images/astropy_powered.png" alt="Powered by Astropy" />
<p>The logo is also available <a href="http://www.astropy.org/_downloads/astropy_powered.png">with white text</a>, or the SVG originals can be obtained at the <a href="http://github.com/astropy/astropy-logo" target="_blank">astropy-logo github repository.</a></p>
