In this video I give a brief introduction to the ancient device called the Astrolabe. I go through the different parts of the device while explaining how to use it. I also show my own design that I would create in the following video.
Music:
Albert Schweitzer
Toccata and Fugue in Dm, BWV 565

I liked the video, but I applaud the effort. The accuracy was exceptional for the time period, and I think it lends itself to the notion that as humans we don't need such a fine toothed comb to go through our daily lives. What's 5 minutes here and there :) My favourite line from the movie Remo Williams the Adventure Begins is, "The watch is a confidence trick invented by the Swiss."

If you like everything Astro...May I suggest the free software called SpaceEngine! An entire explorable universe fully simulated! Definitely check out some videos of it at the least. It simulates entire galaxies of planets and stars...including our own! You’re able to zoom all the way down to the ground on each and every planet. It’s immense. It’s free and developed by a single man. Don’t need a super computer either! It’s runs good on most modern computers. It’s one of my all time favorite pieces of software.

Bravo, in a few short minutes you have explained a great deal about one aspect of the astrolabe. Your discussion as to how it is constructed is well done. However, there is an ancient tradition that holds that the Astrolabe, an analogical computer, can actually perform one thousand operations. One of them is the ability to chart the astrological course of a man's life. Flip the astrolabe to the other side and with the sun's help, you can find the exact time of day.
