I am studying physics, and I came across the term parallax error. I am not able to understand it. If anyone knows parallax error definition, then, please tell me.
Parallax is the difference in the apparent positions of an object when viewed from two different angles or along the different line of sights. Also, it’s originated from the Greek word παράλλαξις, which mean alteration. It has different types, some of them are Stellar parallax and lunar parallax.
It is very helpful and is used by the astronomers to calculate the distance between celestial bodies or any stars which are present in the space and are close to each other.
