Hi all,
It fills us with astronomical joy to announce the release of poliastro
0.15.0! 🚀
poliastro is an open source (MIT) pure Python library for interactive Astrodynamics and Orbital Mechanics, with a focus on ease of use, speed,
and quick visualization. It provides a simple and intuitive API, and
handles physical quantities with units. It is used in academia and the
industry by people from all around the world.
You can install it using pip or conda:
pip install poliastro
conda install poliastro --channel conda-forge
This release shipped numerous new APIs, as well as several look & feel
changes in our website and documentation. We introduced several
experimental objects for the analysis of Earth satellites, new functions
to compute field of view and ground range of satellite sensors, and new plotting utilities for ground tracks and Tisserand diagrams.
Thirty-six people contributed bug fixes and new features to this
release. You can read the full release notes here:
