An astrolabe was an astronomical instrument dating to ancient times. It served as a star chart, and its various functions also made it an analog calculation device capable of working out several kinds of problems in astronomy. It was able to measure the altitude above the horizon of a celestial body, day or night; it could be used to identify stars or planets, to determine local latitude given local time (and vice versa), to survey, or to triangulate.
History
14th century
There was an astrolabe on the floor of the planetarium in Zarok the Sorcerer's castle.[1]
