And how do you know? There is a contextual clue, for some people: do you recognize that vessel in the background? Or did you do it by celestial navigation, working the lunar to get Greenwich Apparent Time, then comparing with the given Local Apparent Time to get longitude and then the latitude from the Sun's altitude? Or did you read about it in an earlier post? ;)
I don't want to give it away yet, but the attached images offer a few more sublte clues --the merest of hints-- on the possible location and the circumstances of that lunar observation.
