[SOFA] Transforms an FK5 (J2000.0) star position (right ascension
ra5 in radians, declination dec5 in radians)
determined at TDB Julian Date jdtdb into the system of
the Hipparcos catalog, assuming zero Hipparcos proper motion. The
returned coordinates in the Hipparcos system are right ascension
rah and declination dech, both measured in
radians. All input and output variables (must) have the same
dimensions.
