On July 13, 2017, the U.S. Air Force’s second GPS III space vehicle (GPS III SV 02) successfully completed acoustic testing. The test simulated the extreme sound wave pressure and pounding vibrations generated by more than 700,000 lbs. of thundering rocket thrust during launch. During acoustic testing, the GPS III SV02 satellite was continuously blasted with deafening sound reaching 140 decibels in a specialized test chamber equipped with high-powered horns. Passing this test, further validated the robustness of Lockheed Martin’s GPS III design.
How to add GPS data to your photos:
I take a photo of the GPS clock
Import pix to Apples Aperture.
Select all the pix with the GPS pix showing
Alter the time of the pix to the time on the GPS. This will alter all the pix accordingly
Edit the photos in Maperture Pro (beta), where I can import the GPS track and add where the picture was taken via Maperture
My biggest challenger with going on runs over 4 hours was keeping my cell phone battery from dying. On today's 5 hour (26.4 mile) run I tried pulling SIM card using only the built in GPS and bluetooth for my headphones and hear rate monitor. It totally worked. My Verizon iPhone 5 was using only. 9% charger per hour instead of 25%.

This map shows data collected during the day from 6am to 9pm.
I have been carrying a GPS tracker with me at all times, walking, busing, driving and flying. This image is generated solely from the GPS data. The color of the lines corresponds to the speed I was traveling. Frequently-traveled paths appear thicker because of how many overlapping tracks there are.
