# TSTrajectoryCreate
This function creates an empty trajectory object used to store the time dependent solution of an ODE/DAE
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscts.h"
PetscErrorCode TSTrajectoryCreate(MPI_Comm comm, TSTrajectory *tj)
```
Collective
## Input Parameter
- ***comm -*** the communicator
## Output Parameter
- ***tj -*** the trajectory object
## Notes
Usually one does not call this routine, it is called automatically when one calls `TSSetSaveTrajectory()`.
