Just one example: image file hvra2239818.fits has in its header
> DATE-OBS= '2001-11-27T07:38:36' / UT date-time of exposure start
> UTSTART = '07:38:36' / Universal time of #1 exposure (I) start
The Julian Date corresponding to this time is 2,452,240.818. Note
that the file name has "2239818" instead of the expected "2240818".
So that particular file (which comes from Disk 7 or 8) has a file
name which is off by one day.
