The Method of Stellar Parallax

question 53

Multiple Choice

The method of stellar parallax

• A) can be used to measure the distance to stars in distant galaxies just as it can be used for stars in the Milky Way Galaxy.
• B) can be used for distant galaxies but only when used with giant molecular clouds (which can be seen at such distances), not with stars.
• C) cannot be used for distant galaxies because redshift spectra are inherently imprecise at such distances.
• D) cannot be used for distant galaxies because of the difficulty of resolving the spectra of individual stars.
