[Enhancement]: Check time range of Horizons files for HST / WFC3 observations

Open astroRez opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Other (any stage)

What is your suggestion?

When processing HST WFC-3 observations, please add a warning / check to see if the time range of the Horizons file covers the time range of the FITS files being processed. If out of range, some funkiness (e.g. time-reversal of light curves) can occur.

hi Reza, one option would be to automatically download the horizons file for each observation -- here's an example: https://github.com/sebastian-zieba/PACMAN/blob/master/src/pacman/s01_horizons.py
