In this technological age, when anartistof nautical astronomy is fast becoming a figure of history, there is a tendency to regard astro-navigation as something that went out with the dodo. It would be as well to remember, therefore, that despite the widespread use of radio navaids from the early years of World War II, astronomical navigation remained the only world-wide fixing system until the launch of the Transit navigation satellites during the 1960s. The truth is that the first half of the present century saw enormous advances in both its methods and practice and the fact that it is still

The universe of marine navigators and surveyors is basically a geocentric one.

However, most courses in navigation require students to understand the many corrections that have to be applied in astro-navigation. The planetarium can be used to illustrate the basic concepts of th

Of the great oceans of the world, the Atlantic, because of its violence, was the last to be mastered by man. The task in its entirety had to wait for the Portuguese sailors of the Renaissance. Isidore of Seville (c. 570–636), a Christian writer of the late Roman Empire, had written of the Atlantic that it was ‘incommensurable and uncrossable’. Although Pliny (a.d. 23–79) refers vaguely to the Canary Islands, all knowledge of them disappears in the Middle Ages until a Portuguese expedition under the command of the Italian Lanzarotto Malocello ‘re- discovered’ them in 1336.

It is believed that Vasco da Gama carried nautical tables on his first voyage to the Indies, 1497–1499, that had especially been produced for the years 1497–1500 by Abraham Zacut, then Royal Astronomer in the service of the Portuguese court. Maritime history writers have suggested two manuscripts as surviving copies of these da Gama tables. One of them is a set of declination tables in the 1519 edition of Suma de Geographia by Martín Fernández de Enciso. Analysis of all available data shows that these tables are indeed good candidates, though their production from the 1505–1508 astronomical ta

Analysis of fifteenth- and sixteenth-century solar tables which have been used in navigation, and of declination tables derived from them, reveals that much of the accepted history needs revision. In particular, the celebrated astronomical tables of Abraham Zacut contain systematic and accidental errors by which later tables may be identified as derived from them. The tables of Pedro Nunez and Martín Cortes are not their own, but have been copied from those of Philipp Imsser, which are usually, but incorrectly, attributed to his predecessor Johannes Stöffler.
