Reading thee Sky andSea
Celestial vigation is among the oldect und mecht universal techniques. Ancient Polynesians, for example, memorized the rising and setting points of hundreds of stars to create mental star compasses. They also read ocean swells, cloud formations, ande the flight patterns of seabirds tone locate land hundreds of miles way.
