Galileo
Is it true? The EU proposes to spend billions of dollars launching 30 satellites to set up their own Satellite Navigation System?
Why? And to top it off It seems that they want to use conflicting frequencies so as to make Galileo incompatible with GPS. WHy not make it all one system so that everybody in the world can share satellites. ANd how do they think they can get away with a user fees system when the US GPS system is free to everybody.
It will be interesting to see this unfold. Has this story made news at all in Europe?
