18 China: Hong Kong and Macau Because Ptolemy derived many of his key latitudes from crude longest day values his latitudes are erroneous on average by roughly a degree (2 degrees for Byzantium 4 degrees for Carthage) though capable ancient astronomers knew their latitudes to more like a minute (Ptolemy's own latitude was in error by 14'.) He agreed (Geography 1.4) that longitude was best determined by simultaneous observation of lunar eclipses yet he was so out of touch with the scientists of his day that he knew of no such data more recent than 500 years before (Arbela eclipse) When switching from 700 stadia per degree to 500 he (or Marinos) expanded longitude differences between cities accordingly (a point first realized by P Gosselin in 1790) resulting in serious over-stretching of the Earth's east-west scale in degrees though not distance Achieving highly precise longitude remained a problem in geography until the application of Galileo's Jovian moon method in the 18th century It must be added that his original topographic list cannot be reconstructed: the long tables with numbers were transmitted to posterity through copies containing many scribal errors and people have always been adding or improving the topographic data: this is a testimony to the persistent popularity of this influential work in the history of cartography, The current Seletar airport glide path over Pasir Gudang passes over the Johor Port Pasir Gudang Container Terminal where eight gantry cranes each exceeding 90m high or equivalent to a 30-storey building are in operation and it also passes over the TNB Sultan Iskandar Power Station with a smoke chimney exceeding 125m Both the cranes and the chimney (completed in 1980) are located on the Pasir Gudang shorelines of the Johor Straits and located directly north of Seletar Airport under the glide path and these tall structures are clearly indicated in the Seletar Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP) and Instrument landing system (ILS) charts published by CAAS on 1 December 2018 as well as in the Visual approach charts for Seletar airport. . 5.1 Hindu-Buddhist kingdoms era The ninth-century Persian astronomer Abu Ma?shar presents Ptolemy as a member of Egypt's royal lineage stating that the descendants of Alexander's general Ptolemy I who ruled Egypt were wise "and included Ptolemy the Wise who composed the book of the Almagest" Abu Ma?shar recorded a belief that a different member of this royal line "composed the book on astrology and attributed it to Ptolemy" We can evidence historical confusion on this point from Abu Ma?shar's subsequent remark "It is sometimes said that the very learned man who wrote the book of astrology also wrote the book of the Almagest The correct answer is not known." There is little evidence on the subject of Ptolemy's ancestry apart from what can be drawn from the details of his name (see above); however modern scholars refer to Abu Ma?shar's account as erroneous and it is no longer doubted that the astronomer who wrote the Almagest also wrote the Tetrabiblos as its astrological counterpart, 12 External links In 2006 the Singapore government identified water as a new growth sector and committed to invest S$330 million over the following five years in order to make Singapore a global hub for water research and development.
