I tried to batch install packages from https://github.com/pepi-p/python-skyfield/blob/master/requirements.txt on windows 11, MINGW64, Python 3.12.2, but It failed.
The reason was the imp module on wh…

Is there a way to call the find_events method in some sort of vectorized fashion to compute the visibility windows of a satellite at multiple positions (I'm imagining something like passing a list of …

I've come across an oddity and I'm trying to figure out if it's an issue/bug in Skyfield or if it's a real effect that I can't figure out.
I'm calculating positions of Saturn observed from Jupiter.…

1. At present, the `.is_sunlit` method or attribute can only be applied to a satellite object, is it possible to apply to any `Geocentric` instances ?
2. `Geocentric` object only supports au as its u…

I've been using assay in linux on a virtual machine, and I really like it!
I know making it support windows is not at all trivial, but in case someday you decide that's something you want to do I'l…

Wikipedia: "Algol's apparent magnitude is usually near-constant at 2.1, but regularly dips to 3.4 every 2.86 days during the roughly 10-hour-long partial eclipses."
Is there a way how to get the ap…

It would be nice if we could compare `Distance` objects to `math.inf` for convenience in algorithms like finding the closest object:
```
min_dist = math.inf
closest = None
for dest in dest…

Hi,
I wonder how to calculate the phase angle of a sunlit satellite in a performant way. I learned that for satellites and the precision the observe() method could be avoided. So my basic attempt was…
