"## Learning Goals\n",
"- Know the requirements for generating a telescope footprint\n",
"- Create a plot of a footprint in the telescope's reference frame\n",
"- Create a plot of a footrpint on the sky\n",

"## Introduction\n",
"This Notebook is a replacement for a web-based footprint viewer. Eventually, footprint viewing functionality will be built into the [Astronomer's Proposal Tool (APT)](https://www.stsci.edu/scientific-community/software/astronomers-proposal-tool-apt); scientists intending to propose for observations should use APT. In the meantime, this Notebook is a useful \"quick look\" tool.\n",

"Note that since PySIAF covers only HST, JWST, and Roman, footprint for other telescopes cannot be generated using this Notebook.\n",

"## Imports\n",
"- `selectSIAF` is a script that hides some of the complexities of this Notebook. Curious readers may wish to explore this file.\n",
