  • Stellar parallax is a method astronomers use for calculating the distance to nearby stars using their observations of how stars move in the night sky as the Earth orbits the sun. This lecture explains how we get the stellar parallax equation, how to use the equation to solve parallax problems, and how the unit of distance Parsec is related to the idea of stellar parallax.

    This is the best video so far. Very clearly explained with diagrams and exercise how it is actually calculated.
    You nailed it mate.👍🏾
    Thank you and best regards.

    All videos use this parallax angle but no one explained how to mesure it

    if its work then explain one simple example at home, take one object at one place inside your home then try to find the theta , may you find the theta ?

    if the star is not parallel to sun then ?

    Also at millions kilometers everything will be looks like parallel to sun so this is wrong information.
