FAQ

What is Plutopy? Plutopy is a community aimed at teaching and advocating for reproducible research in the planetary sciences.

What if I don't do Planetary Science? That's ok! If you are interested in learning about reproducible research, most of the skills taught here are transferable to other areas of science, data science, etc. The examples will revolve around planetary analysis of Pluto though!

Is Pluto a planet? Next question...

I have no experience with this stuff and it all seems daunting Don't worry! The modules here assume little to no experience with programming, Git, or planetary science! All it takes is an interest in learning about reproducible research and an internet connection.

I'm stuck, where do I go for help? The issue board is the best way to get in touch or find help. Chances are, if you got stuck because something was unclear or you don't know what to do next, someone else could have the same problem! You can check if there are any issues that are similar to your problem, and if not, open a new issue (instructions here). A Plutopy collaborator will respond as soon as possible.

I'm ready to start learning! Great! The first task is #1. You got this! 💪
