137. At 1845 zone time, on 17 March, while taking stars for an evening fix, you observe an unidentified star bearing 200° T at an observed altitude of 53° 45.0'. Your DR position at the time of the sight is LAT 25° 10.0' N, LONG 66° 48.0' W. The chronometer time of the sight is 10h 47m 49s, and the chronometer error is 1m 54s fast. Your vessel is steaming on a course of 290° T at a speed of 18.0 knots. What star did you observe?
Rigel's computed altitude and azimuth, derived from the Nautical Almanac and sight reduction using the provided data, align with the observed altitude and bearing, confirming its identification.
