Moving to astropy

  • Coordinates: should be transformed to astropy.coordinates. Precession not really needed.
  • Database: should be converted to astroquery
  • Geometry: SphericalPoint, HourAngle, DMSAngle should be converted to astropy.coordinates.
  • Projections: should be adapted to use astropy.coordinates
  • Constellations; precession to B1875 can be done in astropy (see get_constellation function). Rest of functionality in
