This package implements the atmosphere thermophysical model provided by the
National Aeronautics and Space Administration technical report NASA-TM-X-74335
published in 1976 and entitled *U.S. Standard Atmosphere, 1976*.

Features
--------

* Run the U.S. Standard Atmosphere 1976 model on your custom altitude grid
* Compute all 14 atmospheric variables of the model as a function of altitude:
   * air temperature
   * air pressure
   * number density (of individual species)
   * air number density
   * air density
   * air molar volume
   * air pressure scale height
   * air particles mean speed
   * air particles mean free path
   * air particles mean collision frequency
   * speed of sound in air
   * air dynamic viscosity
   * air kinematic viscosity
   * air thermal conductivity coefficient
* Results stored in `NetCDF <https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/>`_
  format
* Command-line interface
* Python interface
