All is fine up to 2022-12-30 23:59

[NiklasPhabian]

• dt = 2022-12-31 00:00
• JD = 2459944.5
• JD1= 2459944; JD2=0.5

a little more isolated:

import astropy.time, pystare, datetime, numpy

dt = datetime.datetime(2023,1,3)
dt_astro = astropy.time.Time(dt, scale='utc', format='datetime')

pystare._core._from_JulianUTC(numpy.array([dt_astro.jd1]), numpy.array([dt_astro.jd2]), 48, 48)

This is corrected in STARE Release 1.2.7.

For pystare: update STARE and the existing pystare should work. Though in situations where the installation is statically linked, a re-linking may need to occur.
