I support this as an IEEE Milestone.

Regarding the citation.....

I also tripped on the "...leapfrogged..." used as: "It leapfrogged the fiber cable, laser, detector and repeater technologies used in land applications at that time."

Might a more acceptable sentence be: "The technologies surpassed the fiber cable, laser, detector and repeater technologies used in land applications at the time"?

Or, perhaps the term "advanced" in place of surpassed or leapfrogged?
