#3824 — [Python-announce] ANN: poliastro 0.17.0 released 🚀

Hi all,

It fills us with astronomical joy to announce the release of poliastro
0.17.0! 🚀

poliastro is an open source (MIT) pure Python library for interactive
astrodynamics and orbital mechanics, with a focus on ease of use, speed,
and quick visualization. It provides a simple and intuitive API, and
handles physical quantities with units. It is used in academia and the
industry by people from all around the world.

You can install poliastro using pip, conda, or mamba:

pip install "poliastro==0.17.0"
mamba install "poliastro=0.17.0" --channel conda-forge

This release brought a number of new features, most notably an
Orbit.to_ephem method for retrieving the propagation time history from
an osculating orbit, a GabbardPlotter class to plot Gabbard diagrams, a
new recursive series Kepler solver for elliptical orbits, and a new
Orbit.elevation method. In addition, we have refactored the propagation
code and deprecated or deleted several parts of the API, so existing
users are encouraged to read the full release notes before upgrading:

We will present poliastro at SciPy 2022, the 21st annual Scientific
Computing with Python conference, will be held in Austin, TX July 11-17,
2022. If you want to get a sneak peek, don't miss my talk on the Open
Source Cubesat Workshop held at the European Space Operations Centre in
2017:
