#    Example Python program for Astronomy Engine:
#    https://github.com/cosinekitty/astronomy
#
#    This program calculates sunrise, sunset, moonrise, and moonset
#    times for an observer at a given latitude and longitude.
#
#    To execute, run the command:

#    python3 riseset.py latitude longitude [yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ]
