Notice in Rec 460 it says:
B International atomic time (TAI) .... It is in the form of a continuous scale, e.g. in days, hours, minutes and seconds from the origin 1 January 1958 .....
In documents submitted to meetings of CCDS this nomenclature was pointed out as inadequate and misleading, but there was no agreement on a better description. The actual alignment of atomic time with universal time is possible to extract from issues of Bulletin Horaire. https://www.ucolick.org/~sla/leapsecs/taiepoch.html -- Steve Allen <sla@ucolick.org> WGS-84 (GPS) UCO/Lick Observatory--ISB 260 Natural Sciences II, Room 165 Lat +36.99855 1156 High Street Voice: +1 831 459 3046 Lng -122.06015 Santa Cruz, CA 95064 https://www.ucolick.org/~sla/ Hgt +250 m
