Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
pyephem will continue to receive bug updates, but the creators suggest that skyfield is preferred.
see https://rhodesmill.org/pyephem/

Describe the solution you'd like
With the proper enhancements to the sgp4 instrument (#56), this could be dropped.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Update to skyfield? It's more for astronomical objects, not satellites.

Additional context
Originally this was employed to retrieve lat lon alt info. This can be updated via #56

@jklenzing jklenzing added this to the 0.3.0 release milestone Jun 16, 2021

Assuming #56 works, I propose we deprecate this in 0.0.3 and drop it in 0.0.4.
