Python NASA CLI App #2 - Fetching Images and Saving to Filesystem

In this video, we will create a Typer command to fetch images for a given date from the NASA APOD API. Users can pass in the date they want to fetch images for, or else the command will default to the current date.

API requests will be made with the Python requests library.

We will fetch the image from NASA's API and show the image on the user's desktop, using the Pillow library.

We will also configure a command-line flag that allows users to save the image to a directory on their local filesystem
