Astronomical time keeping in Julia
AstroTime.jl provides a high-precision, time-scale aware, DateTime-like data type which supports
all commonly used astronomical time scales.
The package can be installed through Julia's package manager:
julia> import Pkg; Pkg.add("AstroTime")# Create an Epoch based on the TT (Terrestial Time) scale
tt = TTEpoch("2018-01-01T12:00:00")
# Transform to TAI (International Atomic Time)
tai = TAIEpoch(tt)
# Transform to TDB (Barycentric Dynamical Time)
tdb = TDBEpoch(tai)
# Shift an Epoch by one day
another_day = tt + 1daysPlease refer to the documentation for additional information.
