Monte, a state-of-the-art astrodynamic Python library, is JPL's signature astrodynamic computing platform, supporting all phases of space mission development from early space design and analysis through flight navigation services. With over a decade of operational use on NASA’s most demanding deep space robotic missions, Monte provides a platform on which users can build their own custom aerospace tools. It supplies the basic astrodynamic infrastructure --- trajectory models, coordinate frames, high precision time, astrodynamic event searches, sensitivity analysis, numerical integrators, optimization, etc --- allowing you to focus on the problem at hand. All this capability comes with extensive hyperlinked documentation, from introductory tutorials to low level mathematical details.
