How do the astrolabe help European explorers?
The astrolabe was a crucial navigational instrument for European explorers during the Age of Discovery. It allowed them to measure the altitude of celestial bodies, helping determine their latitude at sea. By providing more accurate navigation, explorers could chart their routes more effectively, leading to safer and more efficient voyages. This technology significantly contributed to the expansion of maritime exploration and trade.
How did the explorers use a astrolabe?
Explorers used an astrolabe to determine their latitude by measuring the angle of celestial bodies, such as the sun or stars, above the horizon. By aligning the instrument with a known star or the sun at a specific time, they could calculate their position at sea. This tool was crucial for navigation during the Age of Exploration, allowing mariners to chart courses more accurately across vast oceans. Additionally, the astrolabe helped improve their understanding of astronomy and timekeeping.
What new technologies helped explorers?
The compass, the astrolabe (instrument used to measure latitude), and the rudder all helped European explorers on their quest to find Asia and get rich by by buying spices there and selling them in Europe to get a profit.
What inventions aided in the discovery of the Americas?
