Cesium atomic clocks are some of the most accurate time-keeping devices ever made, but the newest generation of clocks render ...

The advantage of a radio-controlled clock that receives the time signal from WWVB is that you never have to set it again. Whether it’s a little digital job on your desk, or some big analog wall clock ...

IonQ has secured a $28 million contract extension from the Defense Advanced Research Projects ...

Optical atomic clock production enters a new era as DARPA awards IonQ a $28 million contract extension, with an additional $30 million unexercised option, to manufacture 125 Evergreen-05 ...

Atomic clocks are a class of clocks that leverage resonance frequencies of atoms to keep time with high precision. While these clocks have become increasingly advanced and accurate over the years, ...

CHANDLER, Ariz., Aug. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The growing New Space market is fueling demand for smaller, less expensive space hardware to support short-duration missions for applications such as ...

Yuan-Yu Jau is on a quest to build the world's smallest atomic clock, a device that measures time with extreme accuracy. If successful, he and his team at Sandia will have made one smaller than a ...

Atomic clocks have been around for nearly 80 years, but their successors—nuclear clocks—are ready to take the stage. Two independent studies, both uploaded as preprints, report reliable timekeeping ...

For decades, scientists have tried to build a device even more precise than an atomic clock, which keeps time using electrons, the negatively charged particles that whiz around in an atom. Now, two ...

An atomic clock that could pave the way for autonomous deep space travel was successfully activated last week and is ready to begin its year-long tech demo, the mission team confirmed on Friday, Aug.
