The Russian satellite system is of much the same vintage as GPS, having been largely neglected following the collapse of the national economy, but since 2001 the system has been restored gradually, with six new satellites launched in 2008 and three more in 2009. It is expected that GLONASS system accuracy and availability for public use will be comparable to that of GPS by the end of 2011.
First, a look at the navigational revolution that began with the ubiquitous Global Positioning System itself, familiarly known as GPS, a component senior member of the GNSS family.

GPS can thus be seen to be a comparatively elderly system, as maximum on-orbit satellite life is estimated at about 20 years; fortunately though, development of third-generation satellites is ahead of schedule [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with the first due in operation by August 2015.
Unfortunately there is a risk that the GNSS [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], even with its huge capability, may not extend quickly enough to meet the demands of an ever-expanding consumer market [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fired by a growing global dependency on SatNav. Thus there is the specter of a world that might become a victim of its own early GNSS success.
The U.S. Air Force was mandated in 1973 to operate a system of navigational satellites which it named the 'Navstar Global Positioning System', later to become known familiarly as 'GPS'.
The first satellites were superseded by a program of 'Block ll' GPS launches that began in 1989, culminating in a fully operational system by 1995 that presently makes up the constellation of 24 Medium Earth Operating (MEO) satellites that are the necessary minimum to provide worldwide coverage.

GPS Navigation
The Global Navigation Satellite System – GNSS – has developers and manufacturers working at full stretch to develop new satellite systems that will launch to beam new, improved signals: good news indeed for a multitude of diverse GPS-dependent users, not least marine navigators.
