PREDICTIONS:
The following formulas will not reproduce the predictions given below,
but may be used to extend the predictions beyond the end of this table.
x = .0337 - .0743 cos A - .1283 sin A + .0956 cos C + .1453 sin C
y = .3559 - .1247 cos A + .0675 sin A + .1453 cos C - .0956 sin C
UT1-UTC = .3324 - .00042 (MJD - 53745) - (UT2-UT1)
where A = 2*pi*(MJD-53740)/365.25 and C = 2*pi*(MJD-53740)/435.
TAI-UTC(MJD 53741) = 33.0
The accuracy may be estimated from the expressions:
S x,y = 0.00068 (MJD-53740)**0.80 S t = 0.00025 (MJD-53740)**0.75

On 01 January 2006, a positive leap second was introduced in UTC on
31 December 2005
The sequence of dates of the UTC second markers will be:
2005 December 31, 23h 59m 59s
2005 December 31, 23h 59m 60s
2006 January 1, 0h 0m 0s
The difference between UTC and the International Atomic Time (TAI) is:
from 1999 January 1, 0h UTC, to 2006 January 1 0h UTC : UTC-TAI = - 32s
from 2006 January 1, 0h UTC, until further notice : UTC-TAI = - 33s

Important Notice - IAU 2000 Resolution Compliancy Information
**************************************************************************
Resolutions passed at the 24th General Assembly of the International
Astronomical Union (IAU) recommend the implementation of a number of new
procedures concerning the transformation between the celestial and
terrestrial reference systems. Information regarding these procedures
is available in Chapter 5 of the IERS Conventions 2003 available at
.
With these resolutions, beginning on 1 January 2003, IERS Bulletins A and
B will publish new products in addition to those already published. These
products will include the celestial pole offsets X_obs-X_IAU2000A
and Y_obs-Y_IAU2000A where
X_obs and Y_obs are the observed X, Y coordinates of the Celestial
Intermediate Pole in the Geocentric Celestial Reference System, and
X_IAU2000A and Y_IAU2000A are the celestial pole coordinates provided by
using the IAU2000A Precession-Nutation theory.
It is expected that Celestial Pole offsets related to the IAU1980 Nutation
Theory will continue to be published through 15 January 2006. The new
celestial pole offsets related to the new IAU2000A Precession-Nutation
theory will be produced in a separate data file as well as appended to
to this file.
