TIME
|
|
|
|
Barycentric Dynamical Time ("TDB" or T_eph) output was requested. This
|
|
continuous coordinate time is equivalent to the relativistic proper time
|
|
of a clock at rest in a reference frame co-moving with the solar system
|
|
barycenter but outside the system's gravity well. It is the independent
|
|
variable in the solar system relativistic equations of motion.
|
|
|
|
TDB runs at a uniform rate of one SI second per second and is independent
|
|
of irregularities in Earth's rotation.
|
|
|
|
CALENDAR SYSTEM
|
|
|
|
Mixed calendar mode was active such that calendar dates after AD 1582-Oct-15
|
|
(if any) are in the modern Gregorian system. Dates prior to 1582-Oct-5 (if any)
|
|
are in the Julian calendar system, which is automatically extended for dates
|
|
prior to its adoption on 45-Jan-1 BC. The Julian calendar is useful for
|
|
matching historical dates. The Gregorian calendar more accurately corresponds
|
|
to the Earth's orbital motion and seasons. A "Gregorian-only" calendar mode is
|
|
available if such physical events are the primary interest.

REFERENCE FRAME AND COORDINATES
|
|
|
|
Ecliptic at the standard reference epoch
|
|
|
|
Reference epoch: J2000.0
|
|
X-Y plane: adopted Earth orbital plane at the reference epoch
|
|
Note: IAU76 obliquity of 84381.448 arcseconds wrt ICRF X-Y plane
|
|
X-axis : ICRF
|
|
Z-axis : perpendicular to the X-Y plane in the directional (+ or -) sense
|
|
of Earth's north pole at the reference epoch.
