If we discover planet X - a theorized large planet many miles from Pluto but still several trillions of miles from Proxima Centauri -- normally astronomers would need to wait 6 months and observe the planet again to confidently compute its distance via the parallax method. True or False. Why? (At least one sentence showing that you know how measurement of parallax works.)

Suppose the parallax for new planet X is 3.26 arcseconds? What is its distance in parsecs? In light years? In miles? List the steps:

Answer and explain the T/F question with an explanation of parallax. Equation: Plug in #: Calculate Parsecs = Calculate Light years = Miles =
