Abstract
The article presents the key milestones in the development of navigation tools of the first territory researchers. The main inventions and discoveries that directly or indirectly influenced the formation of the entire historical, cultural and geographical world are presented. Tools for tracking own location (with astrolabe, sextant, planisphere, lighthouse), external changing factors, and physical phenomena (with compass, chronometer) are studied not only from the point of view of historical retrospective but also as key milestones that have become the starting points for the development of subject, environmental and graphic design. At the same time, the article is a cultural section of folklore and mythology/ It represents a look at the basics of the traditional formation of peoples of different geographical locations and national composition. On the example of a number of unique specific objects, the connection of the past with the environment of modern man is demonstrated. The article clearly shows the cause-effect relationships between the first inventions and tools related to orientation in space and modern technologies. The influence of various scientific and technical aspects on the formation of a platform for the formation of a digital society of the future is shown. All of the above allows formulating a hypothesis and predicting how navigation will develop in real and virtual space in the future and what will serve as a source of inspiration for it.
