2 FACTS ABOUT THE SKY

GPS was first launched by the US government as a project in 1973 for military purpose, the first satellite under this project was launched in 1978, at that time GPS was used merely by the US military. Used to use this, with the help of this, the American military would shoot down enemy countries' aircraft and their military by targeting them accurately. After this, in 1983, a flight which was going towards Russia, at that time there was no GPS system in the airplane because GPS was made merely for the US military. About 296 people were going in this plane but this plane was mistakenly going to Russia, went into an area where it should not have gone, meaning, it had gone to the restricted area of Russia. After this incident, then the US President Ronald Regan decided that GPS should be used all over the world. Will be publicly provided in, but at that time, about 24 satellites were needed for the entire world, so much so that, to make GPS available to the common people, the first satellite by the US government was launched on 14 February 1989 and 24th satellite was launched in 1994, in the year 1995.For the first time, GPS was made open for the general public, but at that time its accuracy and quality were not so excellent. BY the year 2000, the US government had made many efforts to improve GPS, as a result of which today GPS has started working properly all over the world.
