    Before GPS there was LORAN a ground based system. Not as accurate but worked. In WW2 they used radio station signals with direction finding antennas.

    well at least Boeing can make a good video. covers the birth of satellites and one of the greatest tech breakthroughs ever - GPS - another crazy American story. AND it all depends on an accurate, precise, and calibrated CLOCK (thanks Germany!). this is a headspinning story.

Week day shifts required at least two on shift. I’ve run the place a few days myself. I’ve also worked fiber optic networks and on a mountain top microwave backbone for a pipeline among many other things like avionics tech on military aircraft and electronics on oil well logging tools and more…

    I’m only 6:48 in. . . but I’ll mention something that occurred to me in the 1960s. The “Russians” had big boosters. . . The US did not. So the US learned how to make things SMALL (see what I did there?😉). In my opinion, the Space Race was won by the ability to put 100lbs of functionality into a pound of hardware. . . Transistors, integrated circuits, while the Soviets were still working with vacuum tubes. . .

    The old ones pre GPS used stored maps. There might be a new version today incase GPS signals are lost, but who knows.

    all waves of the electromagnetic spectrum including radio waves travel at the speed of light. i get confused on this everyday. maybe think of a laser as just a fancy radio transmitter.

    I am Rania. I have a project. I have been designing rockets, weapons, and spacecraft for two years. I have been trying to communicate with NASA, but perhaps you did not see my attempts. I want help. I need one chance. I may not have a degree in space or astronomy, but I have more passion than any of your employees.
