Creates a lightcurve database of series of images.
Project description
LightCurve
LightCurve is a module that creates light curves of a similar field of stars. This is useful in time domain astronomy in search of transient events and studies of variable stars, i.e. eclipsing binaries.

Usage
import lightcurves as lc
object_table = lc.makelist('')
# parallelized alignment
object_table = lc.paralign(object_table)
# or serial alignment
object_table = lc.align(object_table)
# All-in-one
object_table = lc.do_lightcurve(object_table)
The process follows:
- Take image list
- Options (*or considerations)
- Reduce images
- Assign WCS*
- Options (*or considerations)
- Align images (How does reducing affect WCS?) 2.1 [Create a deep sky image pending]
- Sorce extraction [from deepsky image]
- Match sources between images [pending]
- Create Timeseries plot of different sources
- Create reference image with all candidate sources circled
