Name the new concept
Compass

Describe the concept
A definition I found is:
"A device for determining directions, as by means of a freely rotating magnetic needle that indicates magnetic north."

  • An Etymological Dictionary of Astronomy and Astrophysics, by M. Heydari-Malayeri

Describe where the concept fits within the existing hierarchy
Astronomical instrumentation > Compass

Please include any additional comments/feedback
This issue was created to split up #355
This is a remaining concept from the original suggestions from Dr. Nielbock
