GPS: Your World Companion
It might not be as known as now, but the Global Positioning Satellite System that we use today has had a dark past. It was first developed for military application, during the time of the tumultuous Operation Desert Storm. One could only say that if not for the GPS system, the success of the war would have been a longer and bloodier road. The GPS system became the eye in the sky for Americans, they could sweep mines with ease, bomb rebel bases with little problem, and navy fire is more accurate now. GPS did not see any rest even after the war. It is still being used by the military for space and satellite monitoring.
