/// Enumeration of different time systems.
///
/// A time system is a recognized time standard for representing instants in time
/// along a consistent, continuous scale. Because all current time systems utilize
/// the same definition of a second, the spacing between instants in time is the
/// same across all time scales. This leaves the only difference between them being
/// offsets between them.
///
/// The currently supposed time systems are:
/// - GPS: Global Positioning System. GPS is a time scale used defined by the GPS navigation system control segment.
///   GPS time was aligned with UTC at system inception (January 6, 1980 0h), but
///   does not include leap seconds since it is an atomic time scale.
/// - TAI: Temps Atomique International. TAI is an atomic time scale, which represents
///   passage of time on Earth's geoid.
/// - TT: Terrestrial Time. TT is a theoretical time standard primarily used for astronomy.
///   TT is offset from TAI by a fixed number of seconds at TAI's inception. This number has not
///   been officially updated, however reprocessing of data from the ensemble of atomic clocks
///   that define TAI could lead to a difference. For exact applications that require precise corrections
///   updated yearly BIPM provides these offsets.
/// - UTC: Universal Coordinated Time. UTC is an atomic time scale steered to remain within
///   +/- 0.9 seconds of solar time. Since the rotation of the Earth is continuously changing,
///   UTC periodically incorporates leap seconds to ensure that the difference between
///   UTC and UT1 remains within the expeccted bounds.
/// - UT1: Universal Time 1. UT1 is a solar time that is conceptually the mean time at 0 degrees
///   longitude. UT1 is the same everywhere on Earth simultaneously and represents the rotation of the
///   Earth with respect to the ICRF inertial reference frame.

    /// Geocentric Coordinate Time. Coordinate time for geocentric reference systems.
    /// Differs from TT by a secular drift (~0.7 s/year) due to Earth's gravitational
    /// time dilation. Computed via Vallado Eq. 3-56.
