Class for handling astronomical coordinates

AstroCoords is a class for manipulating and transforming astronomical coordinates. Can handle the following coordinate types

• Equatorial RA/Dec, galactic including proper motions and parallax
• Planets
• Comets/Asteroids
• Fixed locations in azimuth and elevations
• Interpolated apparent coordinates

For time dependent calculations a telescope location and reference time must be provided. See AstroTelescope and DateTime for details on specifying location and reference epoch.
