Hollywood loves the idea of elite soldiers and secret agents carrying tiny GPS tracking devices implanted beneath their skin, allowing their handlers to locate them anywhere on Earth. From military thrillers to spy movies, these invisible trackers seem like the ultimate surveillance technology, but could they actually work? In this episode of Sitcom Science, we examine the physics of GPS, the limitations of implanted electronics, and how military personnel are really tracked during dangerous missions. The truth reveals why Hollywood's favorite tracking technology is far less practical than it appears.
