In this post we will look at how to reduce a sextant altitude Hs to an apparent altitude Ha. In the following post, we will look at how to reduce Ha to Ho. Ho will then be compared with Hc to determine an intercept. The complete details are contained in Ref.1. Complete Sight Reduction procedures… Continue reading Celestial Navigation Basics – Ha Apparent Altitude
Celestial Navigation Basics – Hs Sextant Altitude
In this post we will look at how to take a sextant altitude Hs. In the following post, we will look at how to reduce Hs to Ha and then to Ho. Ho will then be compared with Hc to determine an intercept. The complete details are contained in Ref.1. Complete Sight Reduction procedures are… Continue reading Celestial Navigation Basics – Hs Sextant Altitude
Scilab & ScicosLab – Scicos Visual Blocks
Scilab and ScicosLab are Open Source Math Programs that can be used in various engineering and scientific applications. I use ScicosLab with the Modnum tool box in all my Telecommunications work, but both Scilab/ScicosLab can be used for all the mathematics involved in my CelNav EBook. In a previous post (Ref.1) I introduced the programs… Continue reading Scilab & ScicosLab – Scicos Visual Blocks
