For vacation, you decide to take a solo boat trip. While contemplating the universe, you lose track of your location. Fortunately, you have some astronomical tables and instruments, as well as a UT clock. You thereby put together the following description of your situation:

?  Your local time is midnight.
?  Polaris appears at an altitude of 67° in the north.
?  The UT clock reads 01:00.

a.  What is your latitude? How do you know?
b.  What is your longitude? How do you know?
