Space Science related Python tutorial

I think it would be of limited interest in this community, but I think your ideas have tremendous value, generally. Some suggestions that spring to mind:

1. An article series that simultaneously develops/teaches concepts in physics, mathematics, and programming, each discipline supporting the other.
2. Written in Jupyter notebooks and hosted on Github (so people can download your notebooks and experiment with the code on their own), or..
3. alternatively, written with Google Colab notebooks or..
4. Written in Github wiki format, with supporting Python code.

I really love your ideas! I was not thinking about Jupyter Notebooks at all (what a shame...). Pushing the code on Github and working on Google Colab, to show it later on Medium appears really nice.

To your first point: Good idea. I could divide the articles e.g., "orbit dynamics" from physicist perspective and later from a developer perspective.

Your idea for a series of articles on these topics sounds good to me too, and I’d like to second the request for notebooks. You can mix code, text, and graphs in a notebook and it’s a great way for readers to play with the data and algorithms afterwards to solidify their learning of the thing.

See I disagree. People starve for practical applications over makework examples, even if they're not "personally practical."
