Thank you for posting that, Rebecca - and amazing to think how they manage to measure and calculate such small amounts.

Yet I suppose although 1.26 microseconds is not a lot by any means, it is the kind of thing that adds up and which has to be kept in mind for things such as long-distance space missions.
