Want this question answered?
Astronomers have difficulty looking at distant stars because while we have highly specialized telescopes, they are in constant contention with various other celestial bodies. In addition to this, the light of distant stars takes hundreds of thousands of years to reach us, making it impossible to get a current look at a distant star.
to see a distant objects..like stars..
nope
We can observe nearby stars moving forward and back against the background of distant stars (parallax). Scientific analysis coupled with observations show that the Earth is held in its orbit by the gravitational force of the Sun which is far more massive than the Earth.
When you look at the stars at night, you can't really tell how distant they are. They can easily seem to be closer than they really are.

still looking for answers i dont know..
They don't understand how redshift affects stars.
Because the speed of light is finite (around 186,000 miles per second) and the stars are so distant, it takes a long time for the light to reach the telescope from the stars - at least 4.2 years. Many objects are millions of light years distant, meaning that what we see in the sky is from the distant past.
Distant Stars was created in 1981.
Distant Stars has 352 pages.
Light years of dust lanes obscure the view of distant stars in visible light. However, radio telescopes can penetrate the dust and can detect (in the x-ray and infrared spectra) the stars in the core of our galaxy.They don't understand how redshift affects stars.
Distant stars give off less light
an ancient greek philosipher named Aristotle first developed the theory that stars were distant suns
Stars are distant suns, which are roughly spherical in shape.
