This evening, we delve into the fascinating journey of maritime navigation, a field that has significantly evolved over the centuries. Initially, sailors relied heavily on the position of the stars and the sun to guide their voyages. The invention of the magnetic compass was a pivotal leap, allowing ships to sail more accurately across the open seas. Advances in technology introduced the sextant, a tool that enhanced accuracy in determining a ship's latitude. In the 20th century, the advent of satellite navigation systems revolutionised maritime travel, enabling exact global positioning. Today, these technological advancements ensure that seafaring is not only more efficient but also considerably safer.
