In this video, we walk step by step through the process of reducing a star sight using strip forms and then plotting the results on a Universal Plotting Sheet.
You’ll see how a raw sextant observation is turned into a usable line of position, from recording the sight to applying the necessary corrections and reductions. We then take that reduced sight and plot it correctly on a UPS to build an accurate star fix.
This video is ideal for:
Celestial navigation students
Mariners preparing for exams
Anyone learning or refreshing star sight reduction and plotting techniques
Topics covered:
Recording a star sight on strip forms
Applying corrections and reductions
Understanding intercept and azimuth
Plotting lines of position on a Universal Plotting Sheet
Building a reliable star fix
Whether you’re new to celestial navigation or just need a refresher, this walkthrough shows the complete process in a practical, easy-to-follow way.
