1. Applications range from weather charts beamed into the cockpit to navigational information to data on plane positions. 2. In-car satellite navigation systems may no longer need to rely on DVD disks to update navigational information. 3. Previous unmanned space missions have required ground controllers to constantly monitor conditions on the spacecraft and provide navigational information to keep them on course. 4. The new system augments the satellite signals with extra signals from ground-based radios, providing much more precise navigational information to special cockpit receivers. 5. These ground stations provide the satellites with navigational information, which the next generation of satellites will be able to supply to each other. 6. A laptop computer will be onboard, linking him to navigational information and home via satellite. 7. Kim also pledged to provide full ground services and navigational information for international airlines flying into North Korean territory, Radio Pyongyang said. |
