Zum #DepotDienstag gibts heute den #Sextant der Firma " VEB Freiberger Präzisionsmechanik" aus der DDR. Der Sextant wurde 1974 hergestellt und in einem abschließbaren mahagoniefarbenen Holzkasten ausgeliefert. Das nautisch-optische Messinstrument stammt von einer privaten Schenkerin.

6/ Diese fundamentale Messung war bereits in der Antike bekannt. Das Prinzip dieser Messung wurde durch weitere Werkzeuge wie das #Astrolabium, den #Oktant und den #Sextant perfektioniert. Die Bestimmung des #Längengrads ist ungleich schwieriger. Erste exakte Messungen gelangen erst im 18. Jh.

2/4 Des instruments comme l'astrolabe, le bâton de Jacob, et surtout le sextant (encore utilisé !) ont permis d'affiner cette pratique. Sébastien Josse du Team Banque Populaire l'explique : "nous mesurons l'angle d'un objet céleste à une heure précise pour déterminer une position." 🧭 #Sextant

A bluish purple octopus sitting on a sparkly hill is gazing through a sextant and holding a sprig of seabuckthorn which has clusters of orange berries. In the night sky above are stars and a full moon under a white moth with black spots.
I’m always behind in posting so I fit 3 in for #Meermay ( #sextant, #octopus, #seabuckthorn), and #EthmiaPusiella for Monday’s #mothmay.
(I used a photo of my own sextant replica, traced the outline then shaded -I’m not that precise!)

A sextant is a means of determining one’s position on the face of the earth, using a celestial body, reliable timepiece, nautical almanac, and sight reduction tables. Civilian use of the previously military-centric Global Positioning System was initiated in the ‘80s, though the cost of receivers for consumer use were de-graded, and expensive. As they were electronic, and relied on a constellation of low-earth orbit satellites, controlled by the US government, it was generally felt that backing up new technology with old was not only responsible, but necessary. Eventually, as the civilian side of the GPS system became more widespread among consumers and industry, celestial navigation was increasingly regarded as archaic. I contemplated selling my own sextant, but have since reconsidered, as the ongoing US administration of the GPS system seems less trustworthy than at any other time since its inception.
Back when I was a #boatbuilder at the #HenryRHinckleyCo in #SouthwestHarbor #Maine, I carefully received a first generation #GPS to install. At that time, it cost $5K+, and was regarded suspiciously, a risky proposition. Little did I know then, the tech was more reliable than government. #Sextant

Not much to say today. Just the usual. Some more work on ambience and stuff, but that's it, this one was mostly just to get some actual HD art of this character

From the very first electronic bubble notes this one grabbed me. If electronic avant garde funk were a category Herbie nailed it. Awesome.

How a sextant works from “The Marvels and Mysteries of Science” from 1941
For simplicity, it omits the smoked glass filters that protect the navigator from performing laser surgery on his eye when looking directly at the sun

and in the “this is cool” department… How about a DIY build your own sextant kit? Not a bad Holidaze present at all.
