Did early navigators use the angle of the sun to find the latitude?
Sighting the Sun at midday (when it is highest in the sky) is one of the best methods to determine latitude (of course you must know what day of the year it is too but that was relatively easy to keep track of). You have to be very careful if you are in the middle of an ocean and on a ship bobbing on the waves to do this properly!
What happened as a direct result of europeans use of the astrolabe?
Astrolabes were first widely used in the Middle Ages and by about 1450AD they were in use by navigators. They allowed navigators to calculate the position of the Sun and stars from the horizon. Their use was the first step toward scientific navigation. The great age of exploration was coincidental with their use.
How would having GPS technology have helped early navigators?
