[. . . ] Theoretically, noon Greenwich Mean Time is the moment when the Sun crosses the Greenwich meridian (and reaches its highest point in the sky in Greenwich). Because of the Earth's uneven speed in its elliptic orbit, GMT has been replaced by UTC (Universal Time Coordinated) which is an ultra stable time standard based on atomic clocks. The GPS (Global Positioning System) is based on 24 satellites which are in orbit round the earth. The GPS receiver receives this information and calculates the longitude and the latitude of its own current position. [. . . ]
