Soyuz – Celestial Navigation Globe

[Johannes]

I found in the Internet some pictures of an interesting and fascinating device obvious used for navigation purposes on board of Soyuz.  A CELESTIAL NAVIGATION GLOBE.

See http://www.nasm.si.edu/exhibitions/gal114/SpaceRace/sec500/sec533.htm and http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/geog/gessler/collections/ .

Does anybody know more about this device? How was it handled?

Есть версия, что этот девайс предназначался для Зонда:
