Prior to 1962, times are UT1. Dates thereafter are UTC. Any 'b' symbol in the 1st-column denotes a B.C. date. First-column blank (" ") denotes an A.D. date. Calendar dates prior to 1582-Oct-15 are in the Julian calendar system. Later calendar dates are in the Gregorian system. The uniform Coordinate Time scale is used internally. Conversion between CT and the selected non-uniform UT output scale has not been determined for UTC times after the next July or January 1st.
