An Adaptive Columbus Fooled Natives Via Valid 15th Century Astronomy

Attn students:

A reason to take astronomy as that annoying undergraduate physical
science requirement for a liberal arts degree (at at least my state
university).

Heck, some knowledge of geology could only get ya to precious
minerals, whereas astronomy could be a life saver.

Seriously: I didn't know they were so advanced in astronomy 500 years
ago.

Attn natives:

beware white man magic aka "rational science"
