Editorial Reviews

From the Actor

This 2-hour DVD shows how to ‘shoot’ the Moon, Navigational Planets and Stars, to celestially navigate at night. Also included in this program is a fine documentary entitled "Pathfinders from the Stars," a feature film from the Department of Commerce, Coast and Geodetic Survey Division, that provides the viewer with a history of navigation.

Product Description

Many people who viewed both introductory Magic Lamp Productions on Celestial Navigation also wanted to know how to use their newly-learned skills at night, so Gene Grossman gathered government training films previously only available by expensive 16-millimeter film rental, and compiled this program on Celestial Navigation.

The DVD contains four main chapters. Part 1 is the Theory; Part 2 the Horizon System, Part 3 the Intercept Method, and Part 4 Practical Application.
