Last month I posted a link to a page from a logbook showing a complete lunar observation calculation AND the associated time sight from 1825. Since people have been talking about these sights, I decided to write up an analysis of this particular set of observations and calculations. This is a real, "at sea" lunar and time sight demonstrating actual practice in this time period. The address:
