  • 1

    What is Parallax, in relation to stars

    Parallax is the apparent shift in the position of a nearer star relative to distant stars, as a result of the Earth's orbit

  • 2

    How is Parallax Angle found

    Measuring the angle to an object (e.g. a star) and seeing how the angle changes as the Earth changes position

  • 3

    What does a larger parallax angle tell us about a star

    That it is nearer the Earth

  • 4

    What is an Astronomical Unit (AU)

    The average distance between the centre of the Earth and centre of the Sun

  • 5

    What is a Parsec

    The distance at which the parallax angle is 1 arcsecond (1/3600th of a degree)

  • 6

    What is a Light Year

    The distance that electromagnetic waves travel on a year in a vacuum

  • 7

    What are Standard Candles

    Objects of known luminosity

  • 8

    What is the formula for measuring distance to stars using standard candles

    Distance², d² (m) = Luminosity, L (W) / 4π × Intensity, I (W/m²)
