    Several crew members in dark navy uniforms are conducting celestial navigation exercises on the deck of a military or coast guard vessel at sea. The primary subject in the foreground is using a sextant to take a celestial or horizon sighting, while two other crew members in the background appear to be doing the same with similar instruments. The ship is underway in open ocean conditions with calm to moderate seas.
    A person wearing a U.S. Coast Guard t-shirt is using a nautical sextant while standing on the exterior stairway of a vessel at sea. The individual is looking through the sextant's eyepiece, likely taking a celestial navigation reading. The ship's wake is visible in the background, indicating the vessel is underway.
