To use the compass, the base plate is first levelled with the horizon and then pointed roughly to what the user believes to be north.

The sights are then set using the local hour angle and the declination of whatever astronomical body is being used ...

The north includes relatively smooth lowland plains. Elysium Mons and Albor Tholus are in the northwest and Orcus Patera is in the east. The Elysium quadrangle is one of a series of 30 quadrangle maps of Mars used by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Astrogeology Research Program. The Elysium quadrangle is also referred to as MC-15 ...
Penn State does particularly well at interdisciplinary research and pulling together experts from many different fields. There are reports on how cluster hiring doesn’t work, but it works here .
