"The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a U.S.-owned utility that
provides users with positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) services.
This system consists of three segments: the space segment, the control
segment, and the user segment. The U.S. Air Force develops, maintains,
and operates the space and control segments." (from GPS.gov)Accordingly, for tonight's Net, we have selected 1 Trivia question with 3 Answers that highlight events about the US GPS. Each Event is indicated by a specific Answer choice from the non-reuseable answers of "A", "B", and "C".
Can you list these 3 Events/Answers in the correct chronological order from oldest to most recent?
Please give us your list -- and please note that each answer choice should be used only once.
