Introduction

This module is built for simulating single celestial body, as well as calculating basic properties

Available Classes and Functions:

class PurpleMicroStar.StarBody.StarBody()

Parameters:

• Position: the position of the planet, in PCI coordinate with the form [x,y,z]
• Velocity: the velocity of the planet, in PCI coordinate with the form [vx,vy,vz]
• Mass: the mass of the planet
• Radius: the radius of the planet
• Spin: the spin speed of the planet, in rad/s
