Title: Celestial Navigation on the Surface of Mars
Descriptive Note: Trident scholar project rept. no. 284
Corporate Author: NAVAL ACADEMY ANNAPOLIS MD

Abstract: A simple, accurate, and autonomous method of finding position
on the surface of Mars currently does not exist. The goal of this
project is to develop a celestial navigation process that will fix a
position on Mars with 100-meter accuracy. This method requires knowing
the position of the stars and planets referenced to the Martian surface
with one arcsecond accuracy
