Question 1386Navigation General

The correct answer is A) Ecliptic. The navigator is primarily concerned with the celestial horizon, celestial equator, and terrestrial (geographical) coordinate systems, as these are essential for navigation and position-fixing. The ecliptic, which is the apparent path of the sun across the celestial sphere, is not of major concern for the navigator compared to the other three coordinate systems mentioned. The celestial horizon, celestial equator, and terrestrial coordinate systems are crucial for determining the navigator's position, course, and other navigation-related calculations, while the ecliptic is more relevant for understanding the movement of celestial bodies, which is important but not the primary focus of the navigator.
