Astropy allows users to construct arrays of ``SkyCoord`` objects which can contain positions on the sky and optionally distances. Essentially this provides absolute 2D or 3D coordinates. We should allow...

We should document how the scaling of points and the color-coding works when color-coding by attributes. In particular, do we have control over the min/max values to use for this...
