   Reduction of stellar coordinates to apparent coordinates. Includes
   corrections for
   - radial velocity of star
   - parallax
   - gravitational light deflection
   - relativistic aberration due to earth and spacecraft velocity
   - Earth precession and nutation   
------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Form:
   u = SReduce( rA0, dec0, pMRA, pMDec, parallax, rV, vSc, jD )
