14. GPS works by receiving
signals from special
satellites that orbit the earth
twice a day at an altitude of
about 13 thousand miles.
A minimum no. of 24
satellites are required for the
GPS to function, but there
are usually 33 satellites
circulating the glob in case
of ones fails.

15. GPS satellites continuously emits RF signal that provides two
signals of information :
1.the current time
2. where exactly about the earth the sat is at that time
GPS receivers use this information to do a special calculation
called triangulation

17. A GPS receiver needs to get signals from three satellites to
calculate latitude and longitude.
It needs the signal from 4th sat to calculate the altitude.
