A question for the astronomers on here, I am trying to plot a collection of stars on the celestial sphere using their ra/dec, and I don’t want to settle for a Cartesian projection, but I can’t seem to find a way to plot these point on the inside of a 2D sphere and then zoom in on the region. I’ve gotten close with CartoPy, but I’m not sure how to zoom in, and there are some issues with units. Does anyone know how to do this?
