  • Abstract
    AS BEST-SELLING author of the modern non-fiction classic \´Longitude\´, Dava Sobel, once said: "To know one\´s longitude at sea, one needs to know the time it is aboard ship and also the time at the home port... at the very same moment." For every hour of rotation of the Earth a fixed point will move longitudinally 15 degrees.
