The sextant is the development of an older instrument called Falstaff that measured the angle of the sun along its shadow, but that was always a bit tricky at sea. In fact, the sextant didn't come true until precise time could be maintained, but that's another story. The primary use of a sextant is to measure the angle between an astronomical object and the horizon for celestial navigation purposes. Estimating this angle, altitude, is known as sighting or shooting the object, or taking a view. A sextant is an instrument used to measure the angle between two visible objects. Its main use is to determine the angle between a celestial object and the horizon that is known as altitude. Making this measurement is known as observing the object, shooting the object, or looking. The angle, and the time it was measured, can be used to calculate a line of position on a nautical or aeronautical chart. A common use of the sextant is to see the sun at noon to find latitude.
