• Astrolodeplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigAstrolode
  
  An astrolode is a navigational and astronomical instrument used to calculate current latitude and longitude by taking bearings on the Fixed Stars, which hang in fixed points over the equator.
  
  It combines an astrolabe (used to calculate the height of a star) and a lodestone, or magnetic compass. Longitude can be calculated from the elevation of the star: the lower the angle, the further north you are. Latitude is calculated from the angle between the nearest fixed star, and magnetic n…

  The Moonscale in fact accurately predicts the motion of the world and surrounding planets, which causes a succession of Glacials (Ice Ages) and Interglacials, which increase and decrease in intensity. These fluctuations are caused by the predictable flucuations of the planet’s axial tilt and other orbital factors. At various tipping points, decades of harsh winters allows buildup of both land and sea ice at the poles. Reduction in sea level alters sea currents, further a…
