STORERSCOPE---
(continued from page one) rapid determination necessary and where ground observation might be impossible because of cloud banks. The second advantage of the instrument is that no mathematical calculation or chart analysis is necessary since the latitude and sidereal or star time may be read instantly from dials on the instrument. Slight Two Stars
This star is usually one of two to be observed together, but navigators who are near the equator or in the southern hemisphere where Polaris is not seen, may use other stars for their determination.
The "Storerscope" is sighted at two stars simultaneously and by a series of mirrors both stars appear in the same field of view. When the two stars are seen to coincide in the observation field, the sighting telescope is pointed directly at the north celestial pole, close to which is found Polaris, the pole star.
Since the sighting must always be done at night, the time obtained is sidereal time. This may be readily converted into longitude by its difference from Greenwich sidereal time taken from a navigator's watch. The latitude is found simply by means of a sextant built into the instrument which tells the angle above the horizon at which the telescope is aimed in pointing to the north celestial pole.
Noticed by N.Y. Times
Dr. Storer's model, on which he started working in the middle of August, has received considerable attention in the New York Times.
The demonstration model is much larger than a manufactured "Storerscope" would be, Dr. Storer said. He pointed out that in practical use the instrument might be no longer than a pocket camera.
This method of position determination cuts down considerably the time necessary in obtaining the latitude
and longitude in navigation. It takes several minutes the ordinary way to obtain a position. The methods now in use are of a tabular nature, consisting of the use of a naval almanac, various methods including the Cosine-Haversine method, and a sextant reading.
The "Storerscope" enables the busy navigator to derive his position in a minute or less and the instrument would be relatively simple to learn to operate.
And so there goes another navigation impasse down the hatch!
