Answers
Celestial navigation requires the sailor to use an instrument, like a sextant, to find the angle between a star/planet and the horizon. The angle will tell the sailor is latitude. The first compass was used in China about a thousand year ago and in Europe about 300 years later.
Explanation:
sailor is one who follows the business of navigating ships or other vessels; one who understands the practical management of ships; one of the crew of a vessel; a mariner; a common seaman while navigator is a person who navigates, especially an officer with that responsibility on a ship or an aircrew member
As much important as maps are in routine road transport, nautical maps are equally important in marine navigation. As navigational maps have to aid ship's captain and crew, nautical maps are drawn graphically with utmost precision. This process of map drawing is known as cartography.
