Time dissemination is distributing accurate and synchronised time information to various devices, networks and institutions. While it might seem like a straightforward task, its implications are far-reaching and hold the potential to shape the success or failure of countless endeavours.

A major milestone towards the redefinition of the second has been achieved by scientists at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) with the first inclusion of a UK optical frequency standard (NPL-Sr1) in the determination of International Atomic Time (TAI).
