Will the method of trigonometric parallax allow astronomers to determine distances to most observable stars in the Milky Way Galaxy? Why? The closest star to the Sun is Proxima Centauri. The distance to Proxima is 4.24 light-years. What is the distance to Proxima in units of parsecs? Using the distance given previously (4.24 ly), what is the parallax of Proxima? Suppose a star has a parallax of 1.0". What is its distance in parsecs'? Which star is fartherstar A with a parallax of 0.5\" or star B with a parallax of 0.1"? Which star will have a larger parallaxstar X at 10 ly or star Y at 100 ly? Are there any stars besides the Sun with parallax angles of 1.0" or greater? Could the exact same method of trigonometric parallax used to determine the distance to Sirius be used to determine the distance to the Sun? Why or why not? Could the method of trigonometric parallax be used to determine the distance to the Andromeda Galaxy (M31)? Why or why not? (HINT: look up the distance to M31.)
