        Description
        -----------
        
        PyOngc provides a python module to access astronomical data about NGC
        and IC objects.
        
        The data is based on OpenNGC database
        https://github.com/mattiaverga/OpenNGC.
        
        It is composed by a main module and a command line utility named
        ongcbrowse which can be used to print object details in a terminal.
        
        PyOngc data can provide data to PyEphem in a simple way to get
        ephemerides of NGC/IC objects. See the documentation about
        ongc.xephemFormat method.
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        ::
        
                >>> from pyongc import ongc
                >>> DSOobject = ongc.Dso("NGC7000")
                >>> DSOobject.getCoords()
                array([[20.  , 59.  , 17.14],
                       [44.  , 31.  , 43.6 ]])
        
        Object data is easily available from command line also:
        
        ::
        
                $ ongc view NGC7000 --details
