Interestingly, there is a historical connection between accurate time keeping, navigation, and the Navy. In 1714 the British government passed the Longitude Act (see longitude prize) to create an incentive to solve the problem of navigation at sea. The solution, developed by John Harrison, was an accurate clock which could compare local time to Greenwich, England time. To this day Greenwich Mean Time is the reference time for the planet, and in the United States, the official time is kept by the United States Navy at the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C..
