The fur basic instruments fr navigatin: Sinan, Inch Astrlabe, Sextant and nautical map.
Sinan, the ancient Chinese cmpass.
Pre-reading
It was invented by Zhang Heng in the Han dynasty. It is made up f a brnze fundatin (青铜地盘) and magnetic spn (磁勺) which is made f natural magnet, psitined right in the central f the fundatin.
The handle f the spn pints t the suth, while the ther side pints t the nrth. When the Sinan is in the still, the handle f the spn pints t the suth because f influence f the terrestrial magnetism (地磁).
It has 17 stars listed as well as a map f the sky verhead (fr 37 degrees) and the ecliptic (黄道). The time f day r night is n the utside edge with nn at the tp f the Astrlabe and midnight at the bttm. It cmes with a carrying chain, a puch, and a bk n its use. The reverse side has a sight fr measuring the elevatins f the heavenly bdies.
The sextant is a navigatinal instrument fr measuring the angle between the hrizn and sme bject in the sky. First a sailr lks at the hrizn thrugh an eyepiece. At the same time he can see light frm the sun r a star reflected ff a small mirrr n tp f the instrument, nt a secnd mirrr and int the eyepiece.
The navigatr can then see tw images, the hrizn and the sun side by side. He can then measure the angle between them n a scale at the bttm f the instrument. The scale ges frm 0 t 120 degrees. An earlier instrument, called a quadrant, measured in angle in the same way but it culd nly measure angles frm 0 t 90 degrees.
sea / nautical / marine chart
Nautical charts are maps f the depth f the sea and the currents f the ceans. They prvide mdern sailrs with rutes thrugh the seas, rather like rads thrugh the cuntryside. The infrmatin began t be cllected in the nineteenth century and has cntinued t be updated ever since. These charts were nt available t Captain Bligh r Zheng He.
