and B1900 epochs, respectively.
TIRS (Terrestrial Intermediate Reference System) is not explicitly referenced in SuperNOVAS. But it can be thought
of as a special case of ITRS (International Terrestrial Reference System) with DUT1 (= UT1-UTC), and the polar offsets

TIRS (Terrestrial Intermediate Reference System) and its older equivalent PEF (Pseudo-Earth-Fixed) are not explicitly

WGS84 has been superseded by ITRS for higher accuracy definitions of Earth-based locations. WGS84 matches ITRS to the
10m level globally, but it does not account for continental drifts and crustal motion. In (Super)NOVAS all Earth-fixed
