Here is an exercise for you. Go online and buy one of those neat
little Mars watches that are set for a day length of 24h 39m 35s.
Set your watch to accurate Earth time, go into a large office
building and using your Mars watch as a reference, synchronize
all of the office clocks over the course of a day so that they
show accurate Earth time to the nearest second.
That's sort of what the problem is like synchronizing the ground-
based clocks of the GPS Control Segment if you don't adjust the
rates of the satellite clocks with the GR correction.
