Why precise timing is the key to navigating the deep reaches of space
In short: Deep space navigation depends on split-second accuracy. This video explores how miniaturized atomic clocks could provide spacecraft with GPS-like directions, regardless of their location in the universe.
Navigator Jill Seubert explains that the success or failure of a space mission often hinges on timing. The video examines the revolutionary potential of using miniaturized atomic clocks to enable precise, stellar navigation far beyond the reach of Earth-based systems.
