"Ancient navigators once looked to the stars to find out where they were. Today, people are still looking to the skies for the same purpose, but they're getting the information from satellites, not the stars. A group of Stanford University academics wants to make such navigation so accurate that it could tell whether you are in your car or standing next to it." (SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS) This article discusses the efforts of researchers to "create a navigation system capable of locating objects within one centimeter, or less than half an inch...within the next 20 years."
