The threat of GPS jamming extends beyond aviation. Without GPS, our lives would grind to a halt: in 2017, a government report stated that systematic GPS jamming could bring the UK's financial, ...

The satellites that make the GPS in your car and smartphone work consist of many atomic clocks. About 400 such atomic clocks are currently operational, providing real-time locations that are ...

JILA researchers are pioneering a nuclear clock using thorium-229, which offers unprecedented stability compared to atomic ...

The ESP8266 combines the timestamp from the GPS messages and the PPS signal to synchronize itself with the atomic clock aboard the orbiting satellite. To prevent the system from drifting too far ...

There was a time when for time-and-frequency geeks this would have been a difficult job, but with the advent of GPS satellites overhead carrying super-accurate atomic clocks it’s surprisingly ...

First adopted in the U.S.during World War I, Daylight Saving Time wasn’t really instituted until 1942, when President Franklin Roosevelt announced a year-round Daylight Saving Time, but it was only ...

Satellite Hosted Multiple Payloads Including NASA's Deep Space Atomic Clock SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / March ...

The amount of sunlight in our days will continue to increase until the summer solstice on Friday, June 20, at 1:41 p.m. And, eventually, we’ll “fall back'' into Standard Time on Nov. 2, 2025. Since ...

The plan is simple: to develop a more secure alternative to GPS by enabling the portable use of new atomic clocks, rather than relying on signals from satellites in space that can be jammed.
