Consider Returning Altitude and Azimuth for Search endpoint results

Open cecomp64 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Description of the issue

Again, thank you for the great tool! It would be really cool if the search results could include altitude and azimuth position information. I suppose it may require observer parameters on the input. Maybe that observer object could be an optional input, and altitude and azimuth are returned when it is present.

What did you try and what didn't work

Search for M1, and it returns RA and DEC positions, but not Altitude and Azimuth.

    ],

      },
      constellation: { id: 'tau', short: 'Tau', name: 'Taurus' }
    }
  }

Magnitude and size would be nice, too!

I'll consider this. Thanks.
