RE: ASTRONOMICAL-CELESTIAL NAVIGATION

I learned celestial navigation in 1966 using a sextant, ephemera for the sun and stars, and logarithm tables for the angles and numbers to compute longitude and latitude using only pencil on paper. Definitely a time consuming process. Today I just glance at the compass app on my iPhone.
