Hello Iosif,

You can find this ontology on the recently released Ontoportal-Astro
website :

https://ontoportal-astro.eu/ontologies/ASTROBJECT

Note that there are a number of other resources being gathered on
this portal. And the astrobject ontology was developed a long time ago,
and we'll try to update it with better mappings to other vocabularies.

I'd be happy to learn what you plan to do with this ontology. Using the 
portal,
you can make proposals on existing ontologies, or upload your own ontology
to compare it with others.

Best regards,

Sébastien Derriere
