Collaboration with poliastro

Open astrojuanlu opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

Hi there!

I'm Juan Luis, the lead developer of https://github.com/poliastro/poliastro/, a Python library for Astrodynamics and Orbital Mechanics. I discovered this proyect through @jpatokal (:wave:) and I wanted to say hi!

I see that you are implementing your own algorithms for planetary propagation. In case they are any useful for you and if including extra dependencies is not a problem, perhaps you can build upon what poliastro has.

Interesting things that SolarSystemOrbiter has that poliastro doesn't after a 1 minute quick review:

  • Leapfrog integration
  • Animations
  • A GUI

Also, I see that you're based in Madrid, my hometown :grin: Would love to have some beers!
