[AstroPy] Astroquery question.

[Alexa Villaume]

Hi Éric,

You may be able to retrieve the magnitudes by customizing the VOTable to include that field.

Look at the section “Specifying which VOTable fields to include in the result” in the documentation (https://astroquery.readthedocs.org/en/latest/simbad/simbad.html).
