Catalog epoch
Per-candidate transit epoch (facts.ephemeris_reference_time_jd, BJD-TDB)
Position epoch
Selected atlas UTC time, as the phase that an observer in the Solar System sees; light travel time is not removed
Selection caveat
A planet candidate, not a confirmed planet: the transit signal can have a different cause, for example an eclipsing binary star. Period, transit epoch, orbit size, and inclination come from the Kepler Objects of Interest table. The orbit direction around the line of sight is a display convention, not a measurement.
