The design of a celestial navigation microcomputer with thoughts on an integrated information distribution system
This report lays the groundwork for further development
of a microcomputer that provides full celestial navigation
capability. The physical design specifications and design
philosophy are investigated. The fix algorithm which
allows determination of position without the use of H.O.
Publications is implemented in the BASIC language.
The application of microcomputer technology to devices
of this nature brings to light the need for an information
distribution system. Thoughts on a system of this purpose
are presented.http://archive.org/details/designofcelestia00moorLieutenant, United States NavyLieutenant, United States NavyApproved for public release; distribution is unlimited
