3. Newton's First Law An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force

4. Gravitational force  Gravity is continually pulling the satellites down around the earth  The satellites are in a constant free falling state

5. Electromagnetic waves  Electromagnetic waves do not need a medium to travel through, allowing them to move in a vacuum  This makes these waves perfect for sending data to and from space

14. NAVTOOLS ROUTE is a complete route planning application. Unlike any other similar application. NavTools Route is able to calculate the most economical engine rpm setting to reach your destination on schedule, taking into account average or predicted weather along the route (data will include wind speed and direction as well as wave heights and current). Many handy tools are included.

21. Beginnings in WWII  LORAN and Decca Navigator  Used to guide ships away from shorelines  Heavily used by the Navy during WWII

22. Developments in the 60’s  Transit and Timation Systems  Transit is the first satellite navigation system also used by the Navy  US Navy develops Timation satellite that proved the ability to put accurate clocks into space  GPS relies on this technology

23. Movement toward GPS  Cold Arms Race helped justify spending the money for research and development of GPS  US Navy and Airforce jointly work together on their missile systems  Enabled them to pinpoint their location prior to launch  1973 military officials at the pentagon agree on a single superior system Navstar, later known as GPS
