    Note that for time differences, the scale can be among three groups:
    geocentric ('tai', 'tt', 'tcg'), barycentric ('tcb', 'tdb'), and rotational
    ('ut1'). Within each of these, the scales for time differences are the
    same. Conversion between geocentric and barycentric is possible, as there
    is only a scale factor change, but one cannot convert to or from 'ut1', as
    this requires knowledge of the actual times, not just their difference. For
    a similar reason, 'utc' is not a valid scale for a time difference: a UTC
    day is not always 86400 seconds.

    Parameters
    ----------
    val : sequence, ndarray, number, `~astropy.units.Quantity` or `~astropy.time.TimeDelta` object
        Value(s) to initialize the time difference(s). Any quantities will
        be converted appropriately (with care taken to avoid rounding
        errors for regular time units).
    val2 : sequence, ndarray, number, or `~astropy.units.Quantity`; optional
        Additional values, as needed to preserve precision.
    format : str, optional
        Format of input value(s)
    scale : str, optional
        Time scale of input value(s), must be one of the following values:
        ('tdb', 'tt', 'ut1', 'tcg', 'tcb', 'tai'). If not given (or
        ``None``), the scale is arbitrary; when added or subtracted from a
        ``Time`` instance, it will be used without conversion.
    copy : bool, optional
        Make a copy of the input values

        This method is flexible and handles both conversion to a specified

        If positional argument(s) are provided then the first one is checked
        to see if it is a valid ``TimeDelta`` format, and next it is checked
        to see if it is a valid unit or unit string.

        To convert to a ``TimeDelta`` format and optional sub-format the options
        are::

          tm = TimeDelta(1.0 * u.s)
          tm.to_value('jd')  # equivalent of tm.jd

        For the two numerical formats 'jd' and 'sec', the available ``subfmt``
        options are: {'float', 'long', 'decimal', 'str', 'bytes'}. Here, 'long'
        uses ``numpy.longdouble`` for somewhat enhanced precision (with the
        enhancement depending on platform), and 'decimal' instances of
        :class:`decimal.Decimal` for full precision.  For the 'str' and 'bytes'
        sub-formats, the number of digits is also chosen such that time values
        are represented accurately.  Default: as set by ``out_subfmt`` (which by
        default picks the first available for a given format, i.e., 'float').

        Parameters
        ----------
        format : str, optional
            The format in which one wants the `~astropy.time.TimeDelta` values.

        subfmt : str, optional
