With the appropriate blue template in place, turn the disk on the starfinder
until the azimuths and altitudes of the bodies on the face of the starfinder
match what you see in the sky. Read the GHA of Aries from the pointer. Open up
your Nautical Almanac to the appropriate page and find the time at which the GHA
of Aries matches that shown by the starfinder. You will probably need to go to
the Increments and Corrections pages too. The result will be approximate.

specified
time...."
