I would suggest taking a look at the excellent "geopy" library, which supports exactly that kind of calculation. Here's a Stack Overflow answer I just found that should address your use case:

Happily, you won't need to leave Earth (and ask Skyfield!) for that particular calculation.
Let me know if the sample code works for you, so I know whether to recommend it in the future!
That's not the answer I expected at all! I expected Skyfield to have this functionality within it. Nevertheless, this did indeed work for me. Thanks for the useful pointer.
I would like to compute a new latitude and longitude for a location related to an existing latitude and longitude by a distance along the Earth's surface.
How do I convert the new x,y,z coordinates into a latitude and longitude? Thank you.
