Method for measuring distance between star and earth

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for measuring distance between a star and the earth, which comprises a barrier fixed above the air; through two observing points of the ground positioned on the same meridian directional line, the observation is carried out respectively from the alignment of two sides of the barrier and a measured star, two lines are crossed in the measured star; the formed angle is the visual angle difference of the measured star; the radius of the earth is used as radix to figure out that the 1 second angle difference is equal to 360*60*60 / 6,2832*6350 kilometers, equal to 1,309,778,457 kilometers which is approximate to 8.732 astronomical units; and finally the 1 second angle difference is divided by the visual angle difference to obtain the distance between the measured star and the earth center. The method can immediately and accurately calculate the actual distance between the star and the earth that night, registers the distance as data essential for aerospace exploration and avoids the trouble of star distinguishment after six months. The method has a principle of utilizing the blocking of the barrier above the air on sight to form the visual angle difference between the observing points and using the radius of the earth as the radix to calculate the 1 second angle difference and then calculate the distance between the star and the earth center.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for measuring planetary distances. Background technique [0002] The size of the universe has been a research topic in astronomy for hundreds of years. Scientists use a variety of methods to measure it, such as the Cepheid cycle-light relationship distance measurement method, spectrometry method, and triangular parallax method. However, there is no reference object in the sky as a basis. Only God knows the accuracy of the measured distances. The results of each measurement are different. If the distance of each star cannot be accurately recorded, there will be no basis for space exploration. Accurate measurement of planets has become a worldwide problem in astronomy. [0003] Now astronomy uses the method of triangular parallax to measure the distance of stars, that is, to measure and record the angle of the stars first, and then to measure and record the angle of the stars for the second time after 6 months, using the...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] It has been proved by experiments that the stars are all planets in the big family of the solar system. They are swirled by the solar wind together with the earth in the vortex of the solar system, and they walk synchronously on their respective guide rails. They are always at the same angle when seen on the earth, and they can be seen all year round. See, so the straight line measured by the parallax method is just the same straight line measured at different times, and the calculated distance is not the actual distance of the planet
