Several key inventions facilitated European exploration, including the compass, which improved navigation by indicating direction, and the astrolabe, which helped sailors determine their latitude at sea. The development of more advanced ships, such as the caravel, allowed for better maneuverability and the ability to sail against the wind. Additionally, advancements in cartography, or map-making, provided explorers with more accurate maps, enhancing their ability to traverse uncharted waters. Together, these innovations significantly expanded European maritime capabilities in the Age of Exploration.
Initially Europeans explored the Americas in search of gold, silver and precious stones.
The explorer who stayed home was Prince Henry when he taught sailors in navigation to make sure they make their way through their destination to find a water route to the indies (Asia). They wanted to find a water route because the land route in Constantinople was closed off.
technology. in 1418 prince henry of Portugal opened a school of navigation. sailors learned how to sail a new kind of ship called a caravel. they also were mapmakers to help make navigation easier for explorers when they are on their expedition. his aim was to make better ships, maps, and tools for navigation. i just read that whole paragraph out my social studies book its true.
They increased the survival rate of sailors and the success rate of overseas transportation.

European sailors were afraid of sailing because they were afraid of falling off the edge. They thought that the world was flat. Another reason was that they didn't have very good navigation. The last reason I know is sea monsters. They believed that sea monsters actually lived. They thought up weird things.

The sailers used the sun and stars to know how far from the equator they were. Hope this helped :)

The compass improved navigation at sea by providing a reliable method to determine direction, allowing sailors to venture farther from land. The astrolabe, on the other hand, aided in celestial navigation by determining latitude based on the position of the stars, enabling sailors to accurately map their location. These advancements facilitated European exploration and expansion by making it easier to navigate unknown waters and reach distant lands.
The old sailors went hugging the coast line. Using the stars to navigate is called celestial navigation.

The invention that significantly aided sailors in navigating using stars is the astrolabe. This ancient instrument allowed navigators to measure the angle of celestial bodies above the horizon, helping them determine their latitude at sea. By using the astrolabe, sailors could more accurately chart their courses and improve their navigation during long voyages.
yes ,actual navigation use electronic navigation and paper one soo they need compas and sundails
