*scc_to_utc* - Converting Spacecraft time to UTC

QPOE event times are typically expressed in units of an on-board spacecraft clock. Because of clock drifts and resets, the relationship between spacecraft time and UTC may be non-linear, and may even vary with time. For Einstein and ROSAT, the relationship is expressed in terms of interpolating polynomials determined through in-flight calibration. The conversion is automatically performed as part of the timing corrections in 8.7.2. The stand-alone task scc_to_utc allows conversion of an arbitrary spacecraft time to UTC.
