The Navigators: Pathfinders of the Pacific - PREVIEW

[Tomorrowsleis]

Not many know this but celestial navigation still existed even when Mau Piailug (a resident/local native from Satawal, Yap) went to Hawaii to teach a part of our culture with the polynesians. This was and still is a sacred part of the people of Yap. This was one reason why not many wanted to go out of Yap to teach it. Yes, the people of Yap are thankful for Mau's contributions. When Hokulea's trip to Japan, was being towed by a modern sea vessel, that was a blow to everything Mau taught/wished.
