This tutorial demonstrates how to use Astropy to plot constellation boundaries and visualize celestial coordinates. It covers how to:

  • Retrieve and use constellation_boundary_moc() from astropy.coordinates
  • Plot constellation borders on a sky map using matplotlib and astropy.visualization
  • Explore sky coverage with MOC (Multi-Order Coverage) maps

The notebook aims to help users understand how to visualize the layout of constellations and interpret sky maps programmatically.

Hello @adithya-ananth, I think you may have accidentally added on old version of the tutorial notebook to this PR, it contains no title/authors/desctiption/narrative, and does not appear to contain the tasks outlined in your comment.
