When to use it
Core Python library for astronomy and astrophysics workflows that need Astropy APIs, including units/quantities, coordinates, FITS I/O, tables, time systems, WCS, and cosmology. Use when implementing or debugging astronomical data analysis code with Astropy.Example requests
Ask your agent in plain language, for example:- “How do I convert a list of RA/Dec in ICRS to Galactic l, b?”
- “I’m opening ngc1300_drz.fits with fits.open and want the science image from the ‘SCI’ extension plus the EXPTIME keyword. Then I need to turn pixel (512, 480) into RA/Dec. I’m getting ‘WARNING: FITSFixedWarning: ‘datfix’ made the change…’ when I build the WCS. What’s going on and how should I write this?”
- “I have a catalog of supernova redshifts and need to know how far away they are in Mpc and how long ago the light left, assuming a flat universe with H0=70 and Om0=0.3. I’d also like to go back from a given distance to a redshift.”
