We all know that the sun rises in
an easterly direction and sets in a westerly one, but what if we find ourselves
out after dark with no compass? If you can see the moon regardless of what phase
it is in. Draw a line through the center of it starting at the top, and
following it all the way to the horizon. That will give you a southerly
direction to help you get your bearings.
