For what it is worth, it seems that the Coast Guard and the Auxillary no
longer have a course in celestial navigation. Granted it is old technology,
but someone needs to know how to get home when the GPS quits working.

It's clear that traditional surveying and navigation have much in
common: trigonometry, interesting instruments, being steamrolled
by GPS.
