From Newsgroup: comp.lang.python.announce

Hi all,

It fills us with astronomical joy to announce the release of poliastro
0.16.0! 🚀

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 it using pip or conda:

pip install poliastro
conda install poliastro --channel conda-forge

This release shipped numerous new APIs and performance improvements.
Yash, our Google Summer of Code 2021 student,  added a number of event detectors for numerical propagation, and several contributors helped
accelerate more parts of the code, which should result in significant
speedups for most workflows. In addition, we have new community-
contributed scripts for relative orbits and mean elements computations.

You can read the full release notes here:

We will present these changes at the Open Source Cubesat Workshop 2021,
to be held online on December 9-10 https://events.libre.space/event/5/
