A python package for astronomical calculations
Reads region names from Simbad and downloads stars from caltech.Gator
Gathering spectral data from Simbad for a list of stars from a test file, output can be read to LaTex, Excel, etc. Made for summer 2019 research project, which was heavy on data mining (3000+ needed spectra).
The main file is palomas_orrery.py This project provides a visualization of the solar system, comets, and space missions using JPL Horizons. And it also provides visualizations of our stellar neighborhood using Hipparcos, Gaia and Simbad.
Add a description, image, and links to the simbad topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.
