Difference between revisions of "How to navigate by the stars (Q44526)"

My daughter asked me to teach her how to navigate by the stars. My friend the Wayback machine showed me how, courtesy of Quietbay.net. http://replay.waybackmachine.org/20071206161519/http://www.quietbay.net/Science/astronomy/nightsky/ The little tutorial through that link will basically teach you how to navigate by the stars in about 5-10 minutes. I took one of the images from the tutorial, traced the important parts in Inkscape, deleted the image, labeled it, and scaled it down to fit on a sticky note. Since the Inkscape->Gcode extension I used does not fill in paths, the large black swath you see is really just an outline - so it doesn't obscure anything.
