US Navy to Start Teaching Sailors to navigate by the Stars Again (Video) September 29, 2017 Nicola US Navy </p> <h2 class="r">U.S. Navy Brings Back Navigation by the Stars for Officers</h2> <p> This year, more than 1,200 midshipmen with the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps are learning the ancient art of navigating by the stars for the first time in almost 20 years.

However, the Navy is now reintroducing this to its training curriculum because of an increased awareness of the vulnerability of navigation systems to hacking.</p> <p> Please support our Sponsors here :
