Compasses may operate on magnetic or gyroscopic (see: gyroscope) principles or by determining the direction of the Sun or a star. The oldest and most familiar type is the magnetic compass, used in different forms in aircraft, ships, and land vehicles and by surveyors. Magnetic compasses work as they do because the Earth itself is a magnet with a north-south field (see: geomagnetic field) that causes freely moving magnets to align themselves with the field.
