App Description
Determine your geographical position from the sun, moon, stars and planets
Celestial navigation exploits the principle that every measurement taken with a sextant (a 'sight') converts to a line of position (LoP) on a chart, the intersections of two or more such lines providing a position fix.
Use this offline compatible app to plan/enter sights and graphically inspecting the resulting lines of position.
