Goofs

When discussing the direction the Sword of Orion heads for, Jeremy states she "turned again, making a course for 82 degrees south". 82 degrees south is the latitude 8 degrees above the south pole and within the landmass of Antarctica. Sword of Orion might make a course for 72 degrees west, or more appropriately 77 degrees 30 minutes west,the approximate longitude of the Bahamas and a course for Nassau. See more »
