Celestial bodies like the sun, moon, stars, and planets have guided sailors for centuries—long before GPS. Understanding them is key to mastering traditional celestial navigation, a skill still vital under STCW and maritime training standards.

In this video, #CaptRodienPacaPhd explains how celestial bodies are used to determine a vessel’s position using sextant readings, chronometers, and nautical almanacs. Referencing STCW Code Table A-II/1, Bowditch (Chapters 17–21), and Nautical Almanac methods, this lesson is essential for cadets, navigation officers, and maritime students who want to pass their competency exams and build confidence in non-electronic navigation.

Learn how to identify key celestial bodies, calculate intercepts, and plot fixes using sight reduction methods—knowledge that can save lives when modern systems fail. It’s time to navigate by the stars like a true mariner.
