It has been suggested to me that I rename this package to something a bit more general to reflect its general nature.

I am open to suggestions, I will think about it and post here if I come up with anything.

Additionally neospy is an existing name in the python ecosystem, though I have contacted the author and he has tentatively agreed to let me have the name.

Apohele as another option, from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atira_asteroid

There is no official name for the class commonly referred as Atira asteroids. The term
"Apohele asteroids" was proposed by the discoverers of 1998 DK36,[3] after the Hawaiian word for orbit, from apo [ˈɐpo] 'circle' and hele [ˈhɛlɛ] 'to go'.

also, NEO Surveyor will likely recover 1998 DK36, which would let it get the official name Apohele (eventually)
