Ever wondered how your phone knows exactly where you are on a map?
GPS works by communicating with satellites orbiting Earth. Your device receives signals from multiple satellites and calculates your location based on how long each signal takes to arrive. By comparing these signals, it can pinpoint your position with impressive accuracy. This is what helps navigation apps give directions in real time.
Every time you use maps, a network of satellites is helping guide you.
