Measuring distances to stars (Stellar Parallax - Detailed Explanation)

[@ZFoxandMcFalcon]

This is the video I was looking for. Everyone's videos for parallax kept omitting the measure of the angle, which is crucial for the measure

[@jensstolpmann7275]

This is a little bit outdated. With the Gaia satellite ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_(spacecraft) ), we can detect parallaxes up to 10,000 pc. That is about 30,000 light years.

Sorry, somehow the reference to GAIA got erased! "To give an idea, the GAIS mission measures ..."

I know so many people have said this already but thank you so much. I have spent so long listening to videos and just asking the same question: how on earth do you obtain the parallax angle. You have explained it brilliantly. Great video!

[@JohnKater1971]

Ahhhhh. over 10 video explanations in and the penny drops here. Thank you for explaining the practical harnessing of the angle by the observer. It seems obvious now, but I needed someone to free me of trying to second guess.

This is the only video that seems to understand the problem of the lack of angular measurement.

Very wonderful background music, heart soothing. I felt very relaxed & tranquilised😂😊

Great video! i subscribed ! im gonna watch more of your videos now! you deserve way more than 2130 subscibers!

❤nice explanation

[@Adn519]

Tysm,tysm,tysm i was confused that how astronomers measure angle ty 😃😃😃😃😃

[@boriskaragiannis]

when was the last time Stellar parallax was used in order to verify ANY stellar distance...?....they only use the red-shift theory now witch is totally false

Very helpful! Thank you!
