Spacewalks

Overview

Spacewalks is a Python analysis tool for researchers to generate visualisations and statistical summaries of NASA's extravehicular activity datasets.

Features

Key features of Spacewalks:

• Generates a CSV table of summary statistics of extravehicular activity crew sizes
• Generates a line plot to show the cumulative duration of space walks over time

Pre-requisites

Spacewalks was developed using Python version 3.12

To install and run Spacewalks you will need have Python >=3.12 installed. You will also need the following libraries (minimum versions in brackets)

• NumPy >=2.0.0 - Spacewalk's test suite uses NumPy's statistical functions
• Matplotlib >=3.0.0 - Spacewalks uses Matplotlib to make plots
• pytest >=8.2.0 - Spacewalks uses pytest for testing
• pandas >= 2.2.0 - Spacewalks uses pandas for data frame manipulation

Installation instructions

Clone the repository bash git clone https://github.com/ThWacker/FAIR_course.git Navigate to the folder with the code

bash cd astronaut-data-analysis-not-so-fair-main/

Create an environment and install all required dependencies

```bash

create environment

python3 -m venv my_env

activate environment

source my_env/bin/activate

install all dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt ``` To ensure everything is working correctly, run the tests using pytest.

python python3 -m pytest

Basic Usage

In the simplest case, you can just run:

bash python3 eva_data_analysis.py

You can also explicitely define input and output files as positional arguments:

bash python3 eva_data_analysis input.json output.csv

As an input, the .json in the data folder should be used, specifically that would be:

bash python3 eva_data_analysis ./data/eva-data.json output.csv
