Methods Documentation
- classmethod open()[source]¶
If the configuration setting
astropy.utils.iers.conf.auto_download
is set to True (default), then open a recent version of the IERS-A table with predictions for UT1-UTC and polar motion out to approximately one year from now. If the available version of this file is older thanastropy.utils.iers.conf.auto_max_age
days old (or non-existent) then it will be downloaded over the network and cached.If the configuration setting
astropy.utils.iers.conf.auto_download
is set to False thenastropy.utils.iers.IERS()
is returned. This is normally the IERS-B table that is supplied with astropy.On the first call in a session, the table will be memoized (in the
iers_table
class attribute), and further calls toopen
will return this stored table.- Returns:
