The International Technical Symposium on Navigation and Timing is an annual event for professionals and researchers working with or interested in navigation and timing technologies and their use. This event focuses on tackling technical hot topics by inviting internationally recognized speakers from all around the world to share their expertise and views. The audience can easily engage in discussion with these experts during the question sessions and roundtables, and the symposium also provides a great environment for networking and visiting exhibition stands.

Speakers at last month’s 9th Annual Conference on European Space Policy in Brussels wasted no time in addressing the somewhat worrying failure of a number of Galileo onboard clocks, as revealed by European Space Agency Director General Johan-Dietrich Woerner at a press briefing earlier in January in Paris. He made clear at the time that the clock failures, while indeed troubling, had had no effect on the operational integrity of the Galileo system.
