Convert the J2000 epoch nanoseconds to J2000 epoch seconds.
The common CDF coordinate epoch stores J2000 nanoseconds. SPICE requires J2000 seconds be used. This is a common function to do that conversion.
- Parameters:
j2000ns (float, numpy.ndarray) – Number of nanoseconds since the J2000 epoch.
- Returns:
Number of seconds since the J2000 epoch.
- Return type:
