Abstract: | Within the last year a series of events have occurred with respect to the operational Navy Navigation Satellite System (NNSS), also known commercially as TRANSIT, which may have direct benefits for the Precise Time and Time Interval (PTTI) community. In September of 1977 the Director. Sirotegic Systems Projects granted permission for the Navy Astronautics Group (NAVASTROGRU), in cooperation with the U.S. Navel Observatory (NAVOBSY), to define changes in equipment and operational procedures which could improve TRANSIT satellite time accuracy with respect to UTC (NAVOBSY Master Clock). |
