Extract

“Through art to science” was the theme of the second “Off the Beaten Track” programme of lectures for nautical schools and colleges. In the last twenty years navigation has changed in precisely that fashion. At the end of World War II, in spite of equipment developments, navigation remained an art, and this shines through the pages of our early Journals. Today the Journal proclaims that the art has become a science. “Sic transit gloria Astro!”
