An international coordinated experimental assessment of a system which promises to provide a synchronization of clocks bound to time and frequency standard laboratories, with an accuracy of one nanosecond using existing or near ground-based laser stations via a geostationary satellite (SIRIO-2) is detailed. The system performance and the technical details concerning the on-board equiment, the ground segment, and the operational configuration are discussed. Finally, the future prospects of the LASSO experiment and possible implementations are examined together.
