Comment on The July Galileo Outage: What happened and whyparent

Comments

Hi - thanks for this (author here). What I mean is, currently, around 5% of the satellites on average broadcast NAPA status. I did not refer to the big outage with this statement, I mean to ongoing developments. Or perhaps you are referring to the same thing & in that case it is entirely possible that the NAPA flag gets raised because the ephemeris is being generated from stale data. Do you know? Thanks!

So that's 1 satellite on average. Even though 5% means the same it makes you think the number is much larger if you do not constantly think of the total available.
