Year: 2006 Language: English Author: Principles of Navigation - Capt. T.K. Joseph & Capt. S.S. Rewari [2006, PDF] Genre: Textbook Publisher: Applied Research International Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 312 Description: A textbook on the Principles of Navigation. Anyone can steer the ship, but it takes a navigator to chart the course! It’s not the dimension of the voyage; it’s the dimension of the navigator that counts because celestial navigation blends both science and art of finding one's geographic position by means of astronomical observations. The book, Principles of Navigation looks at the basic, but very important and useful, celestial measurement of the elevation of sun, moon, planets, and stars. It has a very large set of solved examples while progressing through each topic; precise, highly visualized and simple to grasp diagrams along with a valuable set of theory, as well as practical questions. Although, the art of navigation evolves with experience; but it is the science of navigation that forms the basis and the book is in itself a dedication to the science of navigation, which has been conceptualized here in a very practical manner. In plain, simple language, Principles of Navigation explains how to find where you are in mid-ocean when all electronic navigation fails! Additional info: Its coloured scan copy of the textbook which makes it easily to visualize the concept elaborated in the examples.
