        """Construct grid object from modes, with optional BMS transformation

        This "constructor" is designed with the goal of transforming the frame in which the modes are measured.  If
        this is not desired, it can be called without those parameters.

        It is important to note that the input transformation parameters are applied in the order listed in the
        parameter list below:
          1. (Super)Translations
          2. Rotation (about the origin of the translated system)
          3. Boost
        All input parameters refer to the transformation required to take the mode's inertial frame onto the inertial
        frame of the grid's inertial observers.  In what follows, the inertial frame of the modes will be unprimed,
        while the inertial frame of the grid will be primed.  NOTE: These are passive transformations, e.g. supplying
        the option space_translation=[0, 0, 5] to a Schwarzschild spacetime will move the coordinates to z'=z+5 and so
        the center of mass will be shifted in the negative z direction by 5 in the new coordinates.

        The translations (space, time, spacetime, or super) can be given in various ways, which may override each
        other.  Ultimately, however, they are essentially combined into a single function `alpha`, representing the
        supertranslation, which transforms the asymptotic time variable `u` as
          u'(theta, phi) = u - alpha(theta, phi)
        A simple time translation would correspond to
          alpha(theta, phi) = time_translation
        A pure spatial translation would correspond to
          alpha(theta, phi) = np.dot(space_translation, -nhat(theta, phi))
        where `np.dot` is the usual dot product, and `nhat` is the unit vector in the given direction.


        Parameters
        ----------
        w_modes : WaveformModes
            The object storing the modes of the original waveform, which will be converted to values on a grid in
            this function.  This is the only required argument to this function.
        n_theta : int, optional
        n_phi : int, optional
            Number of points in the equi-angular grid in the colatitude (theta) and azimuth (phi) directions. Each
            defaults to 2*ell_max+1, which is optimal for accuracy and speed.  However, this ell_max will typically
            be greater than the input waveform's ell_max by at least one, or the ell_max of the input
            supertranslation (whichever is greater).  This is to minimally account for the power at higher orders
            that such a supertranslation introduces.  You may wish to increase this further if the spatial size of
            your supertranslation is large compared to the smallest wavelength you wish to capture in your data
            [e.g., ell_max*Omega_orbital_max/speed_of_light], or if your boost speed is close to the speed of light.
        time_translation : float, optional
            Defaults to zero.  Nonzero overrides spacetime_translation and supertranslation.
        space_translation : float array of length 3, optional
            Defaults to empty (no translation).  Non-empty overrides spacetime_translation and supertranslation.
        spacetime_translation : float array of length 4, optional
            Defaults to empty (no translation).  Non-empty overrides supertranslation.
        supertranslation : complex array, optional
            This gives the complex components of the spherical-harmonic expansion of the supertranslation in standard
            form, starting from ell=0 up to some ell_max, which may be different from the ell_max of the input
            WaveformModes object.  Supertranslations must be real, so these values must obey the condition
              alpha^{ell,m} = (-1)^m \bar{alpha}^{ell,-m}
            Defaults to empty, which causes no supertranslation.
        frame_rotation : quaternion, optional
            Transformation applied to (x,y,z) basis of the mode's inertial frame.  For example, the basis z vector of
            the new grid frame may be written as
              z' = frame_rotation * z * frame_rotation.inverse()
            Defaults to 1, corresponding to the identity transformation (no frame_rotation).
        boost_velocity : float array of length 3, optional
            This is the three-velocity vector of the grid frame relative to the mode frame.  The norm of this vector
            is checked to ensure that it is smaller than 1.  Defaults to [], corresponding to no boost.
        psi4_modes : WaveformModes, required only if w_modes is type psi3, psi2, psi1, or psi0
        psi3_modes : WaveformModes, required only if w_modes is type psi2, psi1, or psi0
        psi2_modes : WaveformModes, required only if w_modes is type psi1 or psi0
        psi1_modes : WaveformModes, required only if w_modes is type psi0
            The objects storing the modes of the original waveforms of the same spacetime that
            w_modes belongs to. A BMS transformation of an asymptotic Weyl scalar requires mode
            information from all higher index Weyl scalars. E.g. if w_modes is of type scri.psi2,
            then psi4_modes and psi3_modes will be required. Note: the WaveformModes objects
            supplied to these arguments will themselves NOT be transformed. Please use the
            AsymptoticBondiData class to efficiently transform all asymptotic data at once.

        """Construct grid object from modes, with optional BMS transformation

        This "constructor" is designed with the goal of transforming the frame in which the modes are measured.  If
        this is not desired, it can be called without those parameters.

        It is important to note that the input transformation parameters are applied in the order listed in the
        parameter list below:
          1. (Super)Translations
          2. Rotation (about the origin of the translated system)
          3. Boost
        All input parameters refer to the transformation required to take the mode's inertial frame onto the inertial
        frame of the grid's inertial observers.  In what follows, the inertial frame of the modes will be unprimed,
        while the inertial frame of the grid will be primed.

        The translations (space, time, spacetime, or super) can be given in various ways, which may override each
        other.  Ultimately, however, they are essentially combined into a single function `alpha`, representing the
        supertranslation, which transforms the asymptotic time variable `u` as
          u'(theta, phi) = u - alpha(theta, phi)
        A simple time translation would correspond to
          alpha(theta, phi) = time_translation
        A pure spatial translation would correspond to
          alpha(theta, phi) = np.dot(space_translation, -nhat(theta, phi))
        where `np.dot` is the usual dot product, and `nhat` is the unit vector in the given direction.


        Parameters
        ----------
        w_modes : WaveformModes
            The object storing the modes of the original waveform, which will be converted to values on a grid in
            this function.  This is the only required argument to this function.
        n_theta : int, optional
        n_phi : int, optional
            Number of points in the equi-angular grid in the colatitude (theta) and azimuth (phi) directions. Each
            defaults to 2*ell_max+1, which is optimal for accuracy and speed.  However, this ell_max will typically
            be greater than the input waveform's ell_max by at least one, or the ell_max of the input
            supertranslation (whichever is greater).  This is to minimally account for the power at higher orders
            that such a supertranslation introduces.  You may wish to increase this further if the spatial size of
            your supertranslation is large compared to the smallest wavelength you wish to capture in your data
            [e.g., ell_max*Omega_orbital_max/speed_of_light], or if your boost speed is close to the speed of light.
        time_translation : float, optional
            Defaults to zero.  Nonzero overrides spacetime_translation and supertranslation.
        space_translation : float array of length 3, optional
            Defaults to empty (no translation).  Non-empty overrides spacetime_translation and supertranslation.
        spacetime_translation : float array of length 4, optional
            Defaults to empty (no translation).  Non-empty overrides supertranslation.
        supertranslation : complex array, optional
            This gives the complex components of the spherical-harmonic expansion of the supertranslation in standard
            form, starting from ell=0 up to some ell_max, which may be different from the ell_max of the input
            WaveformModes object.  Supertranslations must be real, so these values must obey the condition
              alpha^{ell,m} = (-1)^m \bar{alpha}^{ell,-m}
            Defaults to empty, which causes no supertranslation.
        frame_rotation : quaternion, optional
            Transformation applied to (x,y,z) basis of the mode's inertial frame.  For example, the basis z vector of
            the new grid frame may be written as
              z' = frame_rotation * z * frame_rotation.inverse()
            Defaults to 1, corresponding to the identity transformation (no frame_rotation).
        boost_velocity : float array of length 3, optional
            This is the three-velocity vector of the grid frame relative to the mode frame.  The norm of this vector
            is checked to ensure that it is smaller than 1.  Defaults to [], corresponding to no boost.
