Today's astronomy picture of the day says that future experiments in the
new ISS Columbus laboratory include an atomic clock to measure miniscule
timing effects:

Does anyone know somthing about the sort of clock they're going to put
in the new lab? Presumably they'll also need a way to do time transfer
and make precise timing measurements. If I lived on a space station I
would demand an atomic clock.
