Until now the code was trying to query and download data from https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/instantrun/nrlmsis/ and https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/instantrun/iri/. However this has shown not to be very stable (query often failing, on server side it seems?). This PR introduces new functions to calculate msis and iri data using the Python packages 'pymsis' and 'iri2016'. We also default to these functions to get msis and iri data.
