Galileo resumes service after extended outage
Posted: Sat, Jul 20, 2019, 10:25 AM ET (1425 GMT)
Europe's Galileo satellite navigation system is back in service after an extended outage. The European Global Navigation Satellite Systems Agency said Thursday that it had restored service after a six-day outage caused by a problem with ground stations that provide precise timing information. Although Galileo had yet to start full operations, the outage had caused frustrations among those using, or were planning to use, the service, in part because of the lack of information about the problem and when service would be restored.
