|

We know that the average distance to the brightest stars is about 20
million times the distance from Earth to Sun(read that) Thinking with
the PARALLAX movement theirs is very small. Reality is the closer their
movement is more rapid. That figures Cygni is a star that fits well
for I think its one of the fast racing stars. Can all this be
used for making accurate measurements as to the angular separation of
are closest stars? yes it can and does do just that. It was well over
175 years ago that Cygni had a parallax of one third of a second of arc
and that put it about 10 LY away. Get the picture? Vega was measured
13LY away I remember the name Henderson for he came up with Alpha
Centaurie was our closest star and only 4 LY away. My thoughts on this
are Using Practical astronomy you can establish the scale of the
universe Go figure TreBert |
