Science - Astronomy & Space / A religious book about the Creation/evolution debate | | English term or phrase: distances well beyond our own solar system | "It is little known that the farthest direct age/distance measurement we can make in the universe is limited to about three hundred light years, done by triangulation using the diameter of the earth’s orbit as a baseline. All age/distance measurements beyond that are indirect, and are based on assumptions which may or may not be valid."
The direct measurement technique is called the parallax method. Consequently, for ***distances well beyond our own solar system***, we have no absolute measure of distance. |
