All of Oceania owes Mau a debt of gratitude. Much respect to all that are relearning our culture.

Not all of Oceania. Marshall Islands and Woleai in Yap are still safeguarding their navigation arts.

Absolutely
I believe they amassed the largest amount of navigational techniques and skills of any civilization
the bravery and confidence required to make such massive journeys like this, trusting your lives in your ability to navigate, is so incredible. these are some of the highest achievements in human history, I think.
I am great grandson of South sea Islanders Navigators my late grandfather and my late grandmother would tell me stories of around South Pacific and And would build the large Ocean going Catamarans and study the waves and the stars at night.
Funny that the reporter and one of the subjects of the story (Nainoa Thompson) are actually married
My fijian ancestors used the wind direction, the birds, stars, moon, sun, sea current,

They're my favorite tribes.
I often wondered how these people's ancestors managed to navigate, with those flimsy canoes they sailed on, out middle of nowhere, out in this vast deserted ocean...

Weren't flimsy at all. They had different designs, including very large dugouts, lashed and caulked rafts, even twin canoes catamaran style with a center platform on which they carried lived animals even growing plants for their journeys. Plus the Pacific doesn't have hurricanes like the American Atlantic
