Difference between Time and United States Naval Observatory

Time vs. United States Naval Observatory

Time is the indefinite continued progress of existence and events that occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past through the present to the future. The United States Naval Observatory (USNO) is one of the oldest scientific agencies in the United States, with a primary mission to produce Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) for the United States Navy and the United States Department of Defense.
