  2. Index mirror: A small mirror attached to a movable arm that reflects the image of a celestial body.
  3. Horizontal mirror: Placed on a frame, this mirror partially reflects and partially allows for direct observation of the horizon.
  4. Telescope: Mounted on a frame, the telescope is used for aiming at a celestial body.
  5. Index arm: A movable arm with a vernier scale or micrometer drum, used for measuring angles.
  6. Filters: Glass filters that reduce the intensity of sunlight, used to protect the eyes during solar observation.
  7. Micrometer drum: A precise mechanism for accurate adjustments of the index arm.
  8. Vernier scale: Allows for reading the angle with high accuracy.
  9. Clamp: Locks the index arm in place after it has been adjusted.

STEP BY STEP USER MANUAL

  1. Preparation:
    1. Attach the sextant to a stable surface or hold it firmly.
    2. Ensure that the telescope is properly aligned with the horizontal mirror and the index mirror.
    3. Set filters when observing the sun to protect your eyes from damage.
  2. Alignment of the Sextant:
    1. Look through the telescope and move the index arm until you see the celestial body reflected in the index mirror.
    2. Continue adjusting until the reflected image of the celestial body is aligned with the horizon visible through the horizontal mirror.
  3. Precise Adjustment:
    1. Use the micrometer drum for precise adjustment. Rotate it until the celestial body is perfectly aligned with the horizon.
    2. If you are using a vernier scale, read the angle on the main scale, and then make an additional precise measurement on the vernier.
  4. Reading of the Angle:
    1. The angle measured between the horizon and the celestial body will be visible on the scale. This is the angle that will be needed for navigational purposes.
    2. Record the observation time, as it will be crucial for calculating your position.
  5. Calculating Position:
    1. Having measured the angle and recorded the time, use the nautical almanac to find the position of the celestial body at the given time.
    2. Use this data to mark your position on the navigation map.
  6. Maintenance:
    1. After use, clean the telescope's mirrors and lenses with a soft cloth.
    2. Store the sextant in a protective case to prevent damage.

Important Notes:

  • Always calibrate the sextant before use by checking it against a known angle or the horizon.
  • Regularly check that all components are properly attached and ensure that everything is securely fastened before taking measurements.
  • Practice using the sextant in various conditions to become proficient in its use.
