Using g a Sextant made easy
3
You find where are 4 times year you do not need any table or chart Apx March 20 and September 20 at noon is zero Apx June 20 and December 20 at noon is The axial tilt of Earth is currently about 23.44¡ã off center Use formula at solar noon for Mar 20 and September 20 Note: Solar Noon is when the shadow line points true north (not magnetic north) Take a read using a pan of aka Artificial Horizon Remember it center of sun just take a reading top and bottom advantage the two readings. ? {Artificial Horizon} angle needs to be divided by 2 ? Now lookup the Atmosphere Refraction angle. The chart here is in minutes Now on March 20 or September 20 no adjustment for D. Altitude - 90¡ã = ? Latitude = D +/- ? *** Note if on a ship ? using the ocean Horizon you need to adjust for angle from standing to ocean. If use a bubble sextant instead of a Artificial Horizon no need to divide by two. *** This only works apx March 20 and September 20 The 23.44¡ã or 23 degrees 26.4 minutes. Is only works in ar noon June 20 and Dec 20 by adding or subtracting. All other you need to use a table or calculate the angle of the sun to determine the sun angle ?????? ?????? Now if read the internet. You never be able to do latitude. Dave

GPS back to in hand WHY
3
Here a article I read last year. It was reprint from 2016 Dave ?????? "Raise your hand if you have ever determined your location on the planet using the stars," Lt. Daniel Stayton tells his class at the U.S. Naval Academy. A young officer halfheartedly puts up her hand. Another wavers. The rest of the class of 20 midshipmen sits stone-faced. This is the challenge facing the U.S. Navy as it tries to bring back celestial navigation. The Navy stopped training its service members to navigate by the stars about a decade ago, focusing instead on electronic navigational systems. But fears about the security of the Global Positioning System and a desire to return to the basics of naval training are pushing the fleet back toward this ancient method of finding a course across open water. Navigation by the stars dates back millennia. The ancient Polynesians used stars and constellations to help guide their outrigger canoes across thousands of miles of the Pacific Ocean. And right up until the mid-20th century, navigation on the sea was usually done by looking at the heavens. That changed in the late 1970s, when the military began launching GPS satellites. The satellite system provided a far more accurate fix than the stars could. In 2000, the U.S. Navy began phasing out sextants and charts in favor of computers. Rear Adm. Michael White, who heads the Navy's training, says the change in curriculum was driven by the need to bring young officers up to speed on the Navy's equivalent of Googlemaps, called the Voyage Management System. It uses GPS, radar and other tools to precisely track a ship's position and course across the ocean. The system is complex and, "we don't have infinite training time available," White says. Lt. Daniel Stayton demonstrates how to use a sextant before a class of midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy. Geoff Brumfiel/NPR So, why return now to the old ways? The Navy and other branches of the U.S. military are becoming increasingly concerned, in part, that they may be overly reliant on GPS. "We use it to synchronize all military operations, we use it to navigate everywhere ¡ª it's just something the U.S. military can't live without," says Brian Weeden, a former Air Force officer now with the Secure World Foundation, a nonprofit that studies security issues in outer space. In a big war, the GPS satellites could be shot down. Or, more likely, their signal could be jammed or hacked. Already, jamming has become more common, Weeden says. "You can buy a lot of GPS jammers off the Internet," he says. "A lot of those are made by Russia." He thinks the Russians probably have systems to jam the special signals the military uses as well. And China may be developing similar capabilities. White, who heads the Navy's training, says there is also a desire to get back to basics. Over the past decade, electronic navigation systems on ships have become easier to use, so less training is required. He says the Navy is bringing back celestial navigation to make sure its officers understand the fundamentals. "You know, I would equate it to blindly following the navigation system in your car: If you don't have an understanding of north/south/east/west, or perhaps where you're going, it takes you to places you didn't intend to go," he says. In fact, there has been at least one incident in the past decade when a Navy ship ran aground partly because of problems with the electronic navigation system, investigators say. Back in the classroom at the Naval Academy, the midshipmen finishing up their first course seem a little bewildered. Until now, says 20-year-old Audrey Channell, celestial navigation wasn't on her radar. "I mean, obviously I heard about using stars to navigate in the old days," she says, "but I never thought I'd be using it." Like many of the others in the class, she uses GPS to navigate her daily life. Her instructor, Daniel Stayton, says that's OK. Nobody expects these young officers to become Magellans overnight.

Day you had no GPS on a road trip
In 1803 when steam engine was a latest and greatest of day. Lewis & Clark had no GPS and they on dry land now what. They had Sextant & Octant (45¡ã/90¡ã sextant) with Artificial Horizon (pan of water and wind shield) and a good clock had keep good time for years. ? Sextant ? Octant using a Peep sight only 45¡ã/90¡ã ? Artificial Horizon with glass wind break ? ? How the Artificial Horizon was used in the 1800's on land. ? Theodolites better than Transit ? Hightly actuate Clock for yeas used on ships for Navigation This what Lewis and Clark used for first tip across America by any one. Map of Lewis & Clark trip More on Lewis & Clark Trip see links below. http://lewisandclarknavigation.org/InstrumentCalibration.htm https://lewis-clark.org/day-by-day/28-jan-1805/ https://mbmg.mtech.edu/Pubs/Lewis-Clark/lewis-clark-equip.asp#gsc.tab=0 Dave

Artificial Horizon using a cake pan and sextant
Here the way for a Artificial Horizon using a 9x13 card pan aka Ford parts pan. Since the sextant measures a angle. The sun reflects off water This gives angle of sun reflection and the sun just devide the angle in haft. Dave ?????? ? Long way off the internet ? Below? In a location away from the sea where the horizon is not immediately visible, it is not possible to take Altitudes of celestial bodies with the Sextant in the usual way. One way to work around this problem is to use an artificial horizon. The artificial horizon can be made with a plate, filled with some liquid. Water will do, but oil is better. A pool can also be used, if there is no wind or waves (the water surface must be completely flat). The purpose of the liquid is to obtain an ideal horizontal (reflecting) surface. The following must be considered for determining the Observed Altitude (Ho) from measurements with the artificial horizon as described above: The index error as well as the sextant reading must be divided by two. The Dip Correction and Semi-Diameter Correction must be set to zero.

Watch size turning
Most use a follower rest but most only goes down to 3/16" [3.5mm] aBIX TOOL WILL GO DOWN TO Wtch A small box goes down to watch size here article on roller box and box tools works in tailstock too Small box tools Here¡¯s a couple box tools I made to use with my little bed and tailstock lathe turrets for taking deeper and more accurate cuts off the diameter than with regular knee tools on relatively long and thin workpieces. They¡¯re basically copie9d from pictures of existing designs, mostly Levin and Somma. Like on those the cutter is held more or less tangential to the work, opposite two adjustable supports set back a little to bear against newly cut surfaces. The larger of the two uses hardened rollers in screw adjustable blocks that are held in with dovetails, while the smaller one uses toolbits ground at opposing angles. Both have floating shanks, partly so I can replace them with others for different applications. They work okay - they¡¯re kind of hard to adjust but that may be just me. The smaller tool is about 1-1/2¡± x 15/16¡± - it uses a 3/16¡± cutter and 1/8¡± back rests, and will pass up to about 1/4¡± work through the body. The bigger one is about 2¡± x 1-1/4¡±, uses a 1/4¡± cutter and passes 5/16¡±. Both have the tools tilted with 7¡ã side cutting angle as well as front and side clearance, and use 40tpi adjusting screws

Fun Fact
St. Elmo's fire (also called witchfire or witch's fire)[1] is a weather phenomenon in which luminous plasma is created by a corona discharge from a rod-like object such as a mast, spire, chimney, or animal horn[2] in an atmospheric electric field. It has also been observed on the leading edges of aircraft, as in the case of British Airways Flight 009, and by US Air Force pilots.[3] Illustration of St. Elmo's fire on a ship at sea Electrostatic discharge flashes across the windscreen of a KC-10 cockpit. The intensity of the effect, a blue or violet glow around the object, often accompanied by a hissing or buzzing sound, is proportional to the strength of the electric field and therefore noticeable primarily during thunderstorms or volcanic eruptions. St. Elmo's fire is named after St. Erasmus of Formia (also known as St. Elmo), the patron saint of sailors. The phenomenon, which can warn of an imminent lightning strike,[4] was regarded by sailors with awe and sometimes considered to be a good omen.[5] ?????? Cause St. Elmo's fire is a reproducible and demonstrable foZhengHeShips.gifrm of plasma. The electric field around the affected object causes ionization of the air molecules, producing a faint glow easily visible in low-light conditions. Conditions that can generate St. Elmo's fire are present during thunderstorms, when high-voltage differentials are present between clouds and the ground underneath. A local electric field of about 100 kV/m is required to begin a discharge in moist air. The magnitude of the electric field depends greatly on the geometry (shape and size) of the object. Sharp points lower the necessary voltage because electric fields are more concentrated in areas of high curvature, so discharges preferentially occur and are more intense at the ends of pointed objects. The nitrogen and oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere cause St. Elmo's fire to fluoresce with blue or violet light; this is similar to the mechanism that causes neon lights to glow, albeit at a different colour due to the different gas involved.[7] In 1751, Benjamin Franklin hypothesized that a pointed iron rod would light up at the tip during a lightning storm, similar in appearance to St. Elmo's fire.[8][9] In an August 2020 paper, researchers in MIT's Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics demonstrated that St. Elmo's fire behaves differently in airborne objects versus grounded structures. They show that electrically isolated structures accumulate charge more effectively in high wind, in contrast to the corona discharge observed in grounded structures.[10][11] ??????
