11:00	65,4°	29,3°

Compare the right data from the table with the one on your flag.

The closer your reading is to the one on this table, the closer you are to the North Pole.
The sextant is not a very precise tool but it's the best we have in 1909, so try to get it really close!

Tip: If the angle you are measuring is HIGHER than that in the table, it means that you should move away from the celestial body to which it refers. If the angle is LOWER, it means you need to move closer!
For example: If you look with the sextant and find the Sun at 65° and compare it with the Sun's 14:00 AM value in the chart (55.5°), it means that you have to move in the opposite direction of the Sun.

You finished your journey!

It took you to build the correct Sledge!

You died because of the cold!

The polar bear caught you !

Your flag was % accurate!
