def boundaries_skycoord(self, healpix_index, step):
        """
        Return the celestial coordinates of the edges of HEALPix pixels

        This returns the celestial coordinates of points along the edge of each
        HEALPIX pixel. The number of points returned for each pixel is ``4 * step``,
        so setting ``step`` to 1 returns just the corners.

        This method requires that a celestial frame was specified when
        initializing HEALPix.  If you don't know or need the celestial frame,
        you can instead use :meth:`~astropy_healpix.HEALPix.boundaries_lonlat`.

        Parameters
        ----------
        healpix_index : `~numpy.ndarray`
            1-D array of HEALPix pixels
        step : int
            The number of steps to take along each edge.

        Returns
        -------
        skycoord : :class:`~astropy.coordinates.SkyCoord`
            The celestial coordinates of the HEALPix pixel boundaries
