Dear Roy , i guess you have not understood the situation. We are not talking about measuring accurate distance or direction itself.
When the Prophet (PBUH) advised to build this mosque he was not present in the location of that Mosque but a 1000 miles away in Hijaz. He had never visited Yamen [Site of the Mosque] himself before construction. The Mosque was to be directed towards Makkah but because of the distance they had no way of finding out how it would be done.
He gave signs about the mountain top and directed to build the mosque according to that direction , WHILE NOT being there himself. Now the Sat imagery proves that he was 100% accurate.
Im not trying to prove his Divinity to you - you won't accept i wont reject so lets keep it scientific.
Cheraman Juma Masjid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Read this , & btw this Mosque is believed to be facing Palestine (Masjid-e-Aqsa) which coincides with the famous miracle by the Prophet [PBUH] of splitting moon into two which converted an Indian Brahmin King Cheraman Perumal to Islam after he saw it on his roof.
Splitting of the moon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He was told by the Arab traders in Malabar that who exactly did it , he left his throne & went to Arabia , met the Prophet (PBUH) himself with his wife and converted to Islam.
The first Muslim convert on Indian soil was an Indian Brahman king & Queen ! --Leave the rest to yourself.
LOL .. umm he was not that accurate... and when ur prophet was alive, map making was well and truly an established and common thing................ its not divine...
