An Power Squadron acquaintance emailed me the following questions. I draw a large blank, which likely indicates a great void in my underdstanding of Celestial Navigation. Any assistance, answers and explaination would be appreciated. It seems to me that data is missing, year, dates, times, but I could certainly be off base there.
1. GHA Nunki = 60, Lo = 15 E, RA Nunki = 250. What is LHA of Aries ?
2. You are at Lo 14 W at ZT 1400. The LMT at your Location is ?
3. You are at L 23 41.7' S, Lo 107 12.3' E. At this time, the GHA of the moon is 323 28.8' and its declination is 17 38.6' S. What is the approximate direction of the moon from your position?
Thanks in advance.
Alan
