US Naval Observatory outside display of the master clock time. The U.S. Naval Observatory provides public time service via 26 NTP [33] servers on the public Internet, [36] and via telephone voice announcements: [37] +1 202 762-1401 (Washington, DC) +1 202 762-1069 (Washington, DC) +1 719 567-6742 (Colorado Springs, CO)
The master atomic clock ensemble at the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington D.C., which provides the time standard for the U.S. Department of Defense. [1] The rack mounted units in the background are caesium beam clocks. The black units in the foreground are hydrogen maser standards.

Telegraph signals were used regularly for time coordination by the United States Naval Observatory starting in 1865. [10] By the late 1800s, many U.S. observatories were selling accurate time by offering a regional time signal service. [11] Sandford Fleming proposed a single 24-hour clock for the entire world.
It was used as a basis for calibrating the quartz clocks at the Royal Greenwich Observatory and to establish a time scale, called Greenwich Atomic (GA). The United States Naval Observatory began the A.1 scale on 13 September 1956, using an Atomichron commercial atomic clock, followed by the NBS-A scale at the National Bureau of Standards ...
