The technology in the 1400-1500's made ships better for sailing by the use of rudders, moveable sails, and larger ships. Navigating became better through the use of the astrolabe and better compasses. Mapping also was better.

How did navigational technology from Asia contribute to the European Age of Exploration?

Navigational technology from Asia, particularly advancements such as the magnetic compass and astrolabe, significantly enhanced European maritime capabilities during the Age of Exploration. These tools improved sailors' ability to determine their position and direction at sea, facilitating longer and more accurate voyages. Additionally, the knowledge of wind patterns and ocean currents acquired from Asian maritime practices helped European explorers navigate previously uncharted waters. This technological exchange ultimately led to increased exploration, trade, and the establishment of new trade routes.
