Peterson AFB - Apr 03, 2003
Whether they sailed across the oceans, climbed imposing mountains, or rolled
across the Great Plains, pioneers were first to explore new frontiers.
Colonel Susan Helms isn't rambling across the prairie in a covered wagon,
but she is a pioneer.

Delta rocket takes GPS satellite into orbit - Another picture of how things
get to space. - LRK -
CAPE CANAVERAL AIR FORCE STATION, Fla. -- A Delta II, carrying a Global
Positioning System satellite, launches from Cape Canaveral, Fla., March 31.
The GPS system provides precise 24-hour navigational latitude, longitude,
altitude, velocity and precise time information. In the first six days of
Operation Iraqi Freedom, more than 80 percent of the munitions that hit
several thousand targets were precision-guided. A GPS satellite emits a
continuous navigation signal and orbits Earth every 12 hours. The system is
so accurate that time can be figured to within 25 billionths of a second,
velocity within a fraction of a mile per hour and location to within 16
meters, or about 52 feet. (Photo by Carlton Bailie, the Boeing Company)
