287. On 8 April your evening DR position is LAT 22° 16' N, LONG 157° 58.3' W. You observe an unidentified star bearing 246° T at an observed altitude (Ho) of 58° 45.5'. The chronometer reads 05h 09m 57s, and is 01m 23s slow. What star did you observe?
Betelgeuse's computed altitude and azimuth, considering the corrected time and DR position, match the observed altitude and bearing, making it the correct identification.
