Marine Astronomical Navigation - Video 9: Numerical on Jupiter
Celestial Astronomy is a very interesting subject if understood in a correct way. The teachers are responsible in a big way to make it interesting or otherwise. Even the non mariners might find this subject interesting. Capt. S.S. Chaudhari, who has been teaching the subject for last 30 years, works on this series of videos to share his knowledge and motivate the young marines. In this video he explains the relationship between elongation of Jupiter, its distance from Sun and heliocentric angle between Jupiter & Earth to determine the time required for Jupiter to come in conjunction or opposition, in a simple way.
