        This library was started to better understand how Flight Dynamics works. It
        has no intent of efficiency nor performance at the moment, and the goal is
        mainly to develop a simple API for space observations.
        
        The sources of this library can be found at `github <https://github.com/galactics/beyond>`__ and
        are under the MIT license.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Beyond requires Python 3.6+, numpy and `sgp4 <https://github.com/brandon-rhodes/python-sgp4>`__.
        To install the library and its dependencies use pip
        
        .. code-block:: shell
        
            pip install beyond

                elev = np.degrees(orb.phi)
                r = orb.r / 1000.
        
                print("{event:10} {tle.name}  {date:%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f} {azim:7.2f} {elev:7.2f} {r:10.2f}".format(
                    date=orb.date, r=r, azim=azim, elev=elev,
                    tle=tle, event=orb.event if orb.event is not None else ""
                ))
        
                # Stop at the end of the first pass
