Description: A comprehensive toolkit for astronomical and cosmological
    computations. Provides functions for angular coordinate conversions
    (degrees, hours-minutes-seconds, degrees-minutes-seconds, and radians),
    access to fundamental physical constants, queries to the Gaia Archive TAP
    (Table Access Protocol) service, cosmological distance calculations,
    early-universe thermal physics including photon density, 'Saha' equation
    solutions, and a full thermal-cosmology module covering the Hubble rate in
    the radiation-dominated era, effective relativistic degrees of freedom,
    entropy density, equilibrium yields, the Boltzmann relic-abundance
    ('pebble') equation for WIMP freeze-out, the freeze-out temperature solver,
    and the Peebles equation for hydrogen recombination. Also includes the
    Drake equation for estimating the number of communicating extraterrestrial
    civilisations in the Milky Way.
