In v5.1, three new frames that depend on Earth's magnetic dipole were added: https://docs.sunpy.org/en/stable/whatsnew/5.1.html#coordinate-frames-related-to-the-earth-s-magnetic-dipole. However, we don't have an example that shows how to actually do anything with these frames....

### Describe the feature In the [how-to guide for creating coordinate objects](https://docs.sunpy.org/en/stable/how_to/create_coords.html), we only show how to create coordinates with `observer='earth'`. We should also show an example of how to...

The documentation build automatically computes some comparisons with some contribution functions computed by IDL: https://fiasco.readthedocs.io/en/latest/generated/gallery/idl_comparisons/goft_comparison.html#. However, the diffs now appear to be signficantly larger than before. I am pretty sure...

The README is getting a bit stale. The links to the pyastro talks and slides should be moved to the docs and the example code should probably be removed since...

Currently, `fiasco` is not compatible with Python 3.12 because we depend on `plasmapy` which depends on `numba` and `numba` is not yet compatible with Python 3.12. Once a `numba` release...

Currently, the level population does not include photoexcitation and stimulated emission processes. For more details, see [section 2.3 of Young et al. (2003)](http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2003ApJS..144..135Y) and [section 2.2 of Landi et al....
