the development of better ships and improved navigation
Explanation: The Crusades reopened and expanded contact with the Eastern Mediterranean, stimulating trade and the need for alternative sea routes to Asian goods. This contact and demand helped spread navigational knowledge (compass, astrolabe) and shipbuilding improvements that directly aided later European exploration.
