Hello! can you include example code for how to convert an entire list of TLE's and load them into a pandas dataframe, with one column per line?

Hello! I've improved the documentation a bit. There is still more to document but I don't have the time right now. Is this better? Is this what you wanted?

with one column per line?

Did you mean one TLE per row? Or do you actually want the transpose? You can take the transpose of a dataframe df with df.T, but it doesn't make much sense with regard to the organization of the data IMHO.

Hi! Congrats for your work. I have a question though : How can I get the latitude, longitude & altitude of a satellite from its TLE file? I don't understand the link between the inclination,first-derivative... and the spherical coordinates of the satellite. Thank you in advance!
