This is a book written to enjoy learning to know the sky and to use that knowledge to obtain the position of the ship by observing the stars. This 7th edition, expanded and updated, includes more than 160 figures, mostly in color, which simplifies the visualization and study of planes, circles and lines; and it uses a renewed definition of the position triangle that simplifies the handling of this concept in practice, reducing the typical sources of error, making it unnecessary to remember formulas and the use of criteria for signs that are soon forgotten. In addition to exercises and solved examples, in this edition something requested by many readers has been added: multiple choice exercises such as those currently proposed in the different exams to obtain the title of Yacht Captain. Whether you are a student of a nautical degree, or if you simply want to put heaven in your head, you will find this book extremely interesting and easy to read.
