Multi Laser planetarium in python3 for LJ.
v0.01
Sam Neurohack
Display all solar planets and hipparcos catalog objects below a given magnitude. Accuracy tested against apparent data and starchart at https://www.calsky.com/cs.cgi?cha=7&sec=3&sub=2
It's an alpha release so a little hardcoded :
- set observer position (find SkyCity, SkyCountryCode) in main.py like 'Paris' and 'FR'
- set observer date.time in InitObserver() arguments (default is now in UTC)
- set what sky part you want to display for each laser in 'LaserSkies' variable : Define alitude and azimuth for top left and bottom right
It needs more libraries than plan. Currently it relies on the awesome astropy, skyfield,...
Soon some pictures.
To Run :
Launch LJ first
python3 main.py
For debug options and more type : python3 --help
To install :
go3.sh
NB :
- if you get an year error out of range : install the last skyfield "python-skyfield" in github.
- Read main.py
LICENCE : CC
Remember : LJ will automatically warp geometry according to alignement data before sending to lasers. See webUI.
