Tue Feb 03 2026
The Resilient Navigation and Timing (RNT) Foundation is a public benefit and scientific and educational charity, 501(c)3, organization. Its members advocate for hardening the Global Positioning System (GPS) of the United States, which is behind some international competitors' systems, including those of Russia and China. The foundation provides unbiased, objective advice to the public and national leaders and champions polices and systems aimed at protecting GPS satellites, signals, and users from interference. Today we talk to Dana A. Goward, president of the RNT Foundation and a retired U.S Coast Guard captain. Mr. Goward brings decades of first-hand experience with navigation issues and served for more than a decade as a member of the U.S. President’s National Space-based Positioning, Navigation, and Timing Advisory Board. | Learn More about the RNT Foundation
