Proud to support the Neuchâtel Timing Exhibition! ⏱️✨ Did you know that Safran Electronics & Defense’s PNT (Positioning, Navigation & Timing) business unit traces its roots back to the renowned Neuchâtel Observatory? This historic institution has played a pivotal role in advancing time measurement and scientific innovation. In fact, some of our most advanced timekeeping technologies - like the Passive Hydrogen Maser, master clock on the Galileo satellite’s payload - were initiated at the Observatory of Neuchâtel. That’s why we’re thrilled to support the exhibition “Des étoiles aux atomes”, organized by l ’Association Automates & Merveilles. This unique event celebrates the Observatory’s legacy and its contributions to science, microtechnology, and precision timing. 🗺️ The exhibition spans four fascinating locations: • Musée international d’horlogerie (MIH) • Musée d’horlogerie du Locle (MHL) • Musée d’art et d’histoire de Neuchâtel (MahN) • The Neuchâtel Observatory itself From marine chronometers to atomic clocks, discover how timekeeping has evolved -and how it continues to shape our world. 🔍 Join us in exploring a legacy of precision that still drives innovation today! #Safran #Timekeeping #Innovation #Neuchâtel #PNT #ScienceHeritage #AtomicClocks #Exhibition # PNT
