I was pretty good with my stars, so had little use for this device, but a lot of new navigators learned from them. Various tranparent disks, depending on latitude, were placed over the master disk. The available navigational stars would be inside an oval on the clear disk. Later navigational publications which had precomputed star azimuths and altitudes further made them obsolete.
