rotationEqjEqd

fun rotationEqjEqd(time: Time): RotationMatrix

Calculates a rotation matrix from J2000 mean equator (EQJ) to equatorial of-date (EQD).

This is one of the family of functions that returns a rotation matrix for converting from one orientation to another. Source: EQJ = equatorial system, using equator at J2000 epoch. Target: EQD = equatorial system, using equator of the specified date/time.

Parameters

time The date and time at which the Earth's equator defines the target orientation.
