I teach High School Astronomy, and as part of our current unit about early human's use of the stars, and other celestial bodies for so many things, including navigation, we have looked at the Astrolabe. One of the groups is actually making an Astrolabe as their project for the unit.

I can't wait to share this article with my class.
