"The demonstration should confirm that DSAC can maintain time accuracy to better than two nanoseconds (.000000002 seconds) over a day, with a goal of achieving 0.3 nanosecond accuracy."
If my math is correct, that's accurate to one second in about 1.369 million years. Pretty good.![113 :113: :113:](/styles/smilies/new/113.gif)
