There are many common features in nuclear data for energy applications and nuclear cosmology/astrophysics, especially the neutron-capture nucleosynthesis. Therefore it is a natural consequence to think that many of the tools that we have developed for the conventional nuclear-data applications can be applied for a development of a database for nuclear cosmology/astrophysics. However, there are also many features that are uncommon to these fields, so new development is necessary when we think about a database for nuclear cosmology and astrophysics. Such new development will then give us a new horizon for the conventional nuclear data activities as well. In this paper we will show the present status of our activities in this direction, putting emphasis on data relevant to neutron capture nucleosynthesis, namely s- and r-processes.
