Celestial Navigation Astronavigation

Ancient stars guide modern sailors when satellites fail, preserving a timeless navigation art

0

Why does celestial navigation remain important despite modern GPS technology?

Because it is more accurate than GPS in all conditions Because it relies on dead reckoning to estimate position Because it provides a reliable backup when electronic systems fail or are unavailable

Maritime and Aeronautical Navigation Heading (navigation)

Heading is the invisible compass guiding ships and planes through unseen forces

0

Why is the heading of a vehicle often different from its actual course over ground?

Because external forces like wind or currents push the vehicle off its intended path, requiring heading adjustments. Because the heading is always measured relative to the vehicle’s speed, not direction. Because heading and course are always the same and never differ under any conditions.

Navigation Rhumb line

Rhumb lines simplify navigation by maintaining a constant compass bearing across the globe

0

Why are rhumb lines easier to follow in navigation compared to great circle routes?

Because rhumb lines represent the shortest distance between two points on the globe. Because rhumb lines maintain a constant compass bearing, allowing steady steering without changing direction. Because rhumb lines avoid crossing meridians of longitude, simplifying calculations.
