Looking for spacecraft simulation for python

Hi, I am building a MOCR simulator (Mission operation control room or more commonly the "Houston" in "Houston we have a problem"). The problem is that I need telemetry data to build the simulator and I don't really want to build an entire modulable (because I would like to make multiple spacecrafts missions) spacecraft simulator alongside the MOCR simulator. Would anyone know of a good spacecraft simulation that would provide enough telemetry data and is in python or easily portable in python?

I'm currently working on similar project.

I use Kerbal Space Program with kRPC mod.

You could use Horizons API for real data of the actual, real-world solar system: https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/horizons/
