Complete 2024 Nautical Almanac including all daily pages, the Pole Star Tables, and all interpolation and correction tables available in the official Nautical Almanac. Everything you need to find the GHA and Declination of the observed body, correct your sextant altitude observation (Hs) and produce the observed altitude (Ho) needed for the sight reduction, and determine solar system event times. Note that it does NOT include other sections of the official Nautical Almanac not mentioned above (detailed explanations, concise sight reduction tables, etc.). This book is compiled from pages that are generated and can be output/printed from the ezAlmanacOne app. If you don't have the app or just want a pre-printed Nautical Almanac as a backup on a passage, this book is an economical version of the same data you will find in the USNO or commercial version of the Nautical Almanac.

The book is designed to help users determine the Greenwich Hour Angle (GHA) and Declination of celestial bodies, correct sextant altitudes, and calculate observed altitudes (Ho) for sight reduction. It also includes times for solar system events, serving as an economical, pre-printed backup for navigators on passages.
This publication is presented as an economical, pre-printed version of data typically found in official Nautical Almanacs, derived from the ezAlmanacOne app. It focuses specifically on the essential tables and daily pages required for celestial navigation calculations, omitting supplementary sections like detailed explanations or sight reduction tables.
