Useful information:
A mirror sextant is a nautical and optical measuring instrument with which one can determine the angle between the viewing directions to relatively distant objects, in particular the angular distance between a star and the horizon. It is mainly used to measure the elevation angle of the sun and stars for astronomical navigation at sea, less often in aviation and on expeditions. Earlier it was also used in astronomy and land surveying. The name sextant comes from the device frame, which represents a sector of a circle of around 60 °, one sixth of a circle, with which, due to the law of mirrors, angle measurements of twice the range, i.e. up to 120 °, are possible. The sextant therefore has a scale of at least 120 °. The older octant has a scale of at least 90 °. Its frame covers about an eighth of a circle, i.e. 45 °. Its name is derived from this - analogous to the sextant. In contrast, the quadrant is a protractor with respect to the perpendicular direction.
Legend:
This is a really impressive sextant, exactly like the model used by sailors, researchers and surveyors in the Wilhelmine era. Complicated in structure and semi-functional in handling, it has all the individual components that are necessary to aim for the sun. A sextant that defines the latitude. The clock indicates the longitude. Defining the angle between the sun and the stars with the horizon was essential for proper navigation and survival. As I said, we have a really nice, impressive, small instrument here, with an eventful and very long historical tradition.
