Hello all,

I am very pleased to announce poliastro 0.3.0, a MIT licensed, pure 
Python library for studying Orbital Mechanics and Astrodynamics problems!

https://poliastro.github.io/

This release features one major change and several new features:

* Pure Python codebase: forget about Fortran thanks to numba!
* Lambert problem solving
* Planetary ephemerides computation thanks to jplephem

You can install it using either pip or conda:

   $ pip install poliastro

   $ conda install poliastro --channel poliastro

If you want to see an overview of poliastro capabilities, check out this 
IPython notebook describing how to plot the trajectory of rover 
Curiosity to Mars:

http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/poliastro/poliastro/blob/0.3.x/examples/Going%20to%20Mars%20with%20Python%20using%20poliastro.ipynb

poliastro is an open source collection of Python subroutines for solving 
problems in Astrodynamics and Orbital Mechanics. It combines cutting 
edge technologies like Python JIT compiling (using numba) with young, 
well developed astronomy packages (like astropy and jplephem) to provide 
a user friendly API for solving Astrodynamics problems. It is therefore 
a experiment to mix the best Python open source practices with my love 
for Orbital Mechanics.

The User Guide explains the basic use of the library and examples are 
provided in the form of IPython notebooks. See the "What's new" document 
and the GitHub log for a complete list of
changes.

https://poliastro.github.io/changelog.html#new-in-poliastro-0-3-0

The project is still a work in progress and the codebase is subject to 
change.

Contributions, bug reports, suggestions and advice are more than welcome!

Juan Luis Cano
