Compute aerospace environment properties including atmosphere (ISA, COESA, NRLMSISE-00, non-standard, CIRA), gravity (spherical harmonic, WGS84, zonal, centrifugal), horizontal wind (HWM), magnetic field (WMM, IGRF), geoid height, geocentric radius, space weather data, planetary ephemeris, Earth orientation (polar motion, nutation, delta-UT1, CIP). Use when computing atmospheric density, temperature, pressure, gravity vectors, wind profiles, magnetic field components, geoid undulation, solar flux indices, planet positions, or Earth orientation parameters for aerospace vehicle analysis, spacecr

# Compute Aerospace Environment Calculate environment properties for aerospace vehicle analysis: atmosphere, gravity, wind, magnetic field, geoid, space weather, planetary ephemeris, and Earth orientation using Aerospace Toolbox functions. ## When to Use - Computing atmospheric properties (temperature, pressure, density, speed of sound) - Calculating gravity vectors or acceleration for any planet - Modeling horizontal wind at altitude - Getting magnetic field components for navigation or compass correction - Computing geoid height or geocentric radius - Reading space weather data for NRLMSISE-00 inputs - Computing planet or Moon positions (ephemeris) - Getting Earth orientation parameters (polar motion, nutation, UT1-UTC, CIP) - Any prompt mentioning: atmosphere model, ISA, COESA, NRLMSISE, pressure, temperature, density, speed of sound, gravity model, WGS84, wind model, HWM, magnetic model, WMM, IGRF, geoid, space weather, solar flux, F10.7, Ap index, planet ephemeris, Moon position, Earth nutation, polar motion, UT1, IERS ## When NOT to Use - Coordinate frame conversions or rotations — use `matlab-convert-aerospace-coordinates` - Orbital mechanics or trajectory propagation (use e

What does the matlab-compute-aerospace-environment skill do?

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit --skill matlab-compute-aerospace-environment --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit, a repository with 868 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
