Given three or four coordinates one can find most things in space.
Remember the longitude problem: it had happened that a ship knows it is
on the lattitude of its destination island (with known coordinates) but
could not determine whether it should sail east or west bcause could
not determine ships own longitude.
What if those coordinates are jittery, due to the ripples in spacetime, caused by gravity waves, how does one find an electron.
In that situation the coordinates may be unknown. However, an electron
is charged, so try to follow the field.
