An interesting novel use of GPS "stray" signals....
"ESA’s retired GIOVE-A navigation mission has become the first civilian
satellite to perform GPS position fixes from high orbit. Its results
demonstrate that current satnav signals could guide missions much further
away in space, up to geostationary orbit or even as far as the Moon. " See:
