# astro-rs
This library provides utilities to interact with astronomical data.

Inspired by Astropy (<http://astropy.org> / <https://github.com/astropy/astropy>)

# Goals
## General goals
* Achieve feature compatibility with the Astropy library
* Equal or surpass the Astropy benchmarks

## Technical goals
* Use pure Rust as opposed to wrapping other libraries
* Deserialize as lazily as possible
* Balance 'tight' (<https://www.ecorax.net/tightness>) types and adherance to APIs with graceful handling of deviation

* <https://esahubble.org/projects/fits_liberator/datasets_archives>
* <https://cxc.harvard.edu/cda/>
