Abstract:
The writing, succinctly presents an evolution of the making of the navigation headlights, from the oldest times until the present. There are described the construction of the headlights, the utilised materials and some technical characteristics. The presentation reveals, in a cursive form, the implementation of the headlights in close connection with the development of the ships and navigation at sea. The biggest achievement on the Romanian coast was carried out at the end of the 2010, when all the headlights were upgraded by changing the heads apart.
