Targets

The Target, along with the associated TargetList, TargetExtra, and TargetName, are the core models of the TOM Toolkit. The Target defines the concept of an astronomical target through a number of parameters. This object is then used throughout the TOM to reference all the information a user or app needs to know about a target. More information on Targets can be found using the following pages:
