Dear Spice Community,

I am thrilled to announce the release of IO.Astrodynamics 6.0, our most advanced and feature-packed version to date!

This major release brings significant improvements and exciting new features that we believe will greatly enhance your experience with the framework:

🚀 Key Features of Version 6.0:
    True Equator and Mean Equinox Frame Support: Unlock new capabilities for your orbital calculations.
    Data Provider Abstraction: While the framework uses SPICE data by default, you can now connect your own custom data sources effortlessly.
    Enhanced Multi-threading Support: Several SPICE functionalities have been rewritten to fully support multi-threaded environments, improving scalability.
    Propagator Performance Boost: Experience up to 25% faster propagation speeds!
    New Interpolation Methods: We've added SLERP and LERP interpolation for more flexibility in data handling.
    Plus, various bug fixes to ensure a smoother, more reliable user experience.

We’re also excited to share that the next version will focus on integrating artificial intelligence to further enhance automation and optimization in astrodynamics applications!
