Setting an Epoch

[Noah Fehrenbacher]

Working myself through the tutorial material, but am not finding a clear way to set the simulation time. I did find a tutorial (https://hanspeterschaub.info/basilisk/examples/scenarioFlybySpice.html) where the NAIF Spice time kernel was used to set a UTC Gregorian time, but when running that source code (using a Mac, Jupyter Lab). I've recieved the errors below after confirming the kernel files exist and spiceypy is installed. Any help would be great - thank you.

ERROR loading the large file de430.bsp: If BSK was installed via a wheel, try running bskLargeData from the console to install the large BSK data files.

And trace:
