China has taken a different tack. Like Russia, they have their own anti-satellite and a GPS alternative called BeiDou.

The need for accurate timing cuts across multiple sectors, but there seems to be a common thread: the trend towards distributed architecture

Two weeks ago the Russians launched an extremely destructive and unnecessary anti-satellite missile.

the lack of a GPS alternative invites attack.

a recent demonstration by an IBM hacker showed that you don't need a missile to hobble our timing-based infrastructure

Before you can settle into your new moon base, you need to have an accurate moon clock.

Why is timing so critical for modern networks?

Who You Gonna Call? It is well known that GPS is an Achilles' heel for our modern world.
