Visualizing the coordinates of slow dippers as given by Schmidt 2021

The paper by Schmidt (doi: 10.3847/1538-3881/ac3416) got me wondering as to how compact the observed clustering of slow-dippers was. Thus I created this program to help me visualize it.

Typical result

This is in fact the standard result (as I have chosen to define it). Though I highly recommend running the script for your self, since three dimensions rarely translate well through a two dimensional picture.

Result of printing all

std-view-vs-full

Even though the clustering isn't seemingly compact in human scale, when comparing to all found slow-dippers one realizes it is in fact significant. I have not adjusted for observational bias due to distance, and neither have I encountered any studies analyzing that. (If you're observant, you might realize this is actually printing all+)
