Navigation is the science of charting one’s own route from point ‘A’ to point ‘B’ with respect to known references both in spatial as well as in temporal domain. Identifying and remembering objects and landmarks like rocks, trees, and rivers; markings on trees; leaving stones or flags; or looking at stars, sun, and moon as points of reference were techniques and navigational aids that early man used to find his way in jungles, deserts, mountains, etc. Further, the time reference was day, night, or even seasons. Navigation is perhaps the only science that has steadily progressed over millions of years—from prehistoric times to the modern age. Birds, animals, and aquatic species also use some sort of navigation technique.
