Captains like Dirk Hartog used the route known as the "Cape Route," which involved sailing around the southern tip of Africa, specifically the Cape of Good Hope. This route allowed ships to navigate from Europe to Asia by taking advantage of the prevailing winds and ocean currents. After rounding the cape, they would proceed across the Indian Ocean to reach their destinations in Asia, primarily for trade in spices and other valuable goods.
GPS watches are meant for running. They are a great tool when you are running on trails you are not accustomed to, so you do not get lost. You can also figure out your running route with them.
A straight route is the path taken in a straight line while the shortest distance between two points on a circle is known as the great circle route. However, while travelling the great circle around the globe, the path ahead will look like the straight route.
Because on a globe, a great-circle route is the shortest route between two places.

Great Circle routes are used because they are the shortest route between two points on the globe.
Great Circle Route
the shortest air route is a great circle
The great circle route is the shortest route.It is just that if you plot a great circle path on a flat map (unless it is the equator or a line of longitude) it will look bent - this is an artifact of map projection.The actual difference in route lengths depends on the routes you are comparing.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The great circle route is the shortest route between two locations on a "roughly" spherical object like the earth. It is in effect the straight line between two locations along the surface of a sphere.By the straight route - I assume you mean a straight line on a 2D map. This usually does not coincide with the great circle route. The difference in length between a so-called straight route and a great circle route would then vary based on both the map projection selected and the location of the two endpoints of the journey.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------The SHORTEST line between two points on a sphere IS a GREAT CIRCLE.Also, by definition, the shortest line between two points IS the straight route.
sally ride took a route of determination and courage. She was a great hero !
i dont know....i am trying to figure that out myself
