0.4.7 (2024-03-08)
==================
New Tools and Services
----------------------
esa.hsa
^^^^^^^
- New module to access the ESA Herschel mission. [#2122]
ipac.irsa
^^^^^^^^^
- New class, ``Most``, to access the Moving Object Search Tool (MOST) is
added. [#2660]
mocserver
^^^^^^^^^
- ``mocserver`` is the new name of the ``cds`` module allowing access to the
CDS MOC server [#2766]
solarsystem.neodys
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- New module to access the NEODyS web interface. [#2618]
solarsystem.pds
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- New module to access the Planetary Data System's Ring Node System. [#2358]
Service fixes and enhancements
------------------------------
alfalfa
^^^^^^^
- Removal of the non-functional ``get_spectrym`` method as that service has
disappeared. [#2578]
alma
^^^^
- Fixed a regression to handle arrays of string input for the ``query``
methods. [#2457]
- Throws an error when an unsupported ``kwargs`` (or argument) is passed in
to a function. [#2475]
- New DataLink API handling. [#2493]
- Fixed bug in which blank URLs were being sent to the downloader. [#2490]
- Removed deprecated broken functions from ``alma.utils``. [#2331]
- Fixed a bug in slicing of ALMA regions. [#2810]
- Added support for ALMA OIDC (OpenID Connect) auth service, Keycloak. [#2712]
- Fixed bug to use the timeout set in the configuration. [#2535]
astrometry_net
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Added a ``verbose=`` keyword argument to ``AstrometryNet`` to control
whether or not to show any information during solving. [#2484]
- Fixed a bug which caused ``solve_timeout`` to not be respected when an image
was solved by constructing a source list internally before sending data to
astrometry.net. [#2484]
- Avoid duplicated warnings about API key and raise an error only when API key
is needed but not set. [#2483]
- Added ``return_submission_id`` keyword argument to
``monitor_submission()``. [#2685]
- Fixed off-by-one error in the reference pixel of the WCS solution when the
solution is found using sources detected by photutils. After this fix the
solution from astrometry.net will be the same when the input is an image
regardless of whether the image is uploaded or sources are detected
locally. [#2752]

(e.g. Gaia) no longer print messages about where the results of async queries
were written if the ``verbose`` setting is ``False``. [#2299]

small body search when no matches are found. Horizons does not have a
major body only search. [#2161]
* The default value was ``'smallbody'`` but it is now ``None``, which
follows Horizons's default behavior. [#2161]
- Fix changes in column names that resulted KeyErrors. [#2202]
jplspec
^^^^^^^
- JPLSpec now raises an EmptyResponseError if the returned result is empty.
