All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, TransformProvider

public final class EME2000Provider
extends FixedTransformProvider

EME2000 frame : mean equator at J2000.0.

This frame was the standard inertial reference prior to GCRF. It was defined using Lieske precession-nutation model for Earth. This frame has been superseded by GCRF which is implicitly defined from a few hundred quasars coordinates.

The transformation between GCRF and EME2000 is a constant rotation bias.
