38. At 0450 zone time, on 25 June your DR position is LAT 21° 26.0' N, LONG 160° 24.5' W. You are steering course 100° T at a speed of 10 knots. You observed 3 celestial bodies. Determine the latitude and longitude of your 0514 running fix. Body Zone Time GHA Observed Altitude Declination Mirfak 450 100°25.9' 35°27.4' N 49°47.5' Fomalhaut 502 169°59.9' 38°01.3' S 29°43.1' Altair 514 219°39.9' 31°39.5' N 8°49.1'
The running fix, determined by reducing celestial body sights from their respective DR positions and advancing earlier LOPs to a common time, yields a position of LAT 21 25.0' N, LONG 160 18.0' W.
