Space, the final frontier.

So,, Splain sumtin, Lucy

Why would Jim Kirk and the Federation need GPS?

Quote: Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds. To seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no man has gone before!

SpaceX just launched a GPS satellite for the U.S. Space Force. A Falcon 9 rocket lifted off from Cape Canaveral, Florida carrying an upgraded GPS satellite. The mission was planned for Oct. 2, but the launch was aborted when an issue was detected. This launch is the fourth in a series of ten upgraded GPS satellites for the military.

Clearly the Klingons would be able to hack our currently outdated GPS satellites and cause the USS Enterprise (CNV-65) to get lost in the South China Sea.

You silly rabbit.
