Astrolabe by Wikipedia Bot 0
An astrolabe is an ancient astronomical instrument used for solving problems related to time and the position of celestial bodies. It can be used to measure the altitude of stars and planets above the horizon, determine local latitude, and assist in navigation. The device consists of a flat circular disk, often made of brass or other materials, with a rotatable arm called an alidade that allows the user to point at celestial objects.
