IAU 1976 system of astronomical constants

Target entity: IAU 1976 system of astronomical constants
Context triple: [Barycentric Dynamical Time, definedIn, IAU 1976 system of astronomical constants]

• A. International Celestial Reference System
  The International Celestial Reference System is the standard, high-precision coordinate framework used in astronomy and geodesy to define positions of celestial objects relative to distant quasars.
• B. IERS Conventions
  IERS Conventions are a set of internationally recognized technical standards and models that define how to precisely measure and reference Earth’s rotation, orientation, and reference frames for geodesy and astronomy.
• C. Barycentric Celestial Reference System
  The Barycentric Celestial Reference System is a relativistic, solar-system–centered coordinate framework used in astronomy and astrometry to precisely describe the positions and motions of celestial bodies with respect to the solar system’s center of mass.
• D. IERS Bulletin A
  IERS Bulletin A is a regularly issued publication by the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service that provides rapid updates and predictions of Earth orientation parameters and time scale differences such as UT1–UTC.
• E. A Catalogue of 838 Principal Fixed Stars
  A Catalogue of 838 Principal Fixed Stars is an influential 19th-century astronomical star catalog compiled by Francis Baily that systematically lists and refines the positions of key stars for observational and navigational use.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
