Full description
PyEphem provides astronomical computations for the Python programming
language. Given a date and location on the Earth's surface, it can
compute the positions of the Sun and Moon, of the planets and their
moons, and of any asteroids, comets, or earth satellites whose orbital
elements the user can provide. Additional functions are provided to
compute the angular separation between two objects in the sky, to
determine the constellation in which an object lies, and to find the
times at which an object rises, transits, and sets on a particular
day.
