% Computes the transformation form ECI to ECIR.
ECIR is an inertially fixed frame that coincides with EF at jD.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
m = ECIToECIR( jD, eOfECalc )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------
jD (1,1) Julian date
eOfECalc (1,1) Calculate the equation of the equinoxes
-------
Outputs
-------
m (3,3) Julian date at which theta is zero
