wwt_api_client: Pythonic access to the WorldWide Telescope web services

The AAS WorldWide Telescope is a free and powerful visualization engine developed by the American Astronomical Society that can display astronomical and planetary data. This engine is powered by a large (multi-terabyte) collection of astronomical survey data stored in the cloud. The wwt_api_client package allows you to invoke the web APIs that constitute the WWT backend API.
