The Earth's orbit - diameter about 300 million km. - is used for this purpose. In other words, the position of a star (compared to objects that are further away) is measured when Earth is at one side of its orbit, and then again 6 months later, when Earth is at the opposite side of its orbit.

stellar parallax
The parallax of nearby stars is the result of the Earth moving around the Sun. As far as I know, there is no reasonable alternative explanation for it.
Since you've not provided any clues... It could be - ight year, parsec or astronomical unit
Is it Jupiter's orbit, a parsec, the average diameter of the Earth's orbit or a light year? Please choose one of the following.
Do you mean Stellar Magnitude or do you mean how big some measurement is? Magnitude usually means the measure of smething, For example if something is 7 meters away from the "origin" the magnithude of its distance is 7
Stellar distances are measured in light-years, which is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.

false, too much margin of error to have precise angles
They have discovered planets and other large bodies in alien star systems by measuring stellar wobbles.

The fierce rivalry between these two opposing tendencies drives stellar evolution. drdercgdrvryetvyrdfc
Its the distance light travels in a year, and its used to measure stellar distances.
Light year is used to measure the stellar distances whereas miles and km is used to measure distance on Earth.
Stellar Parallax Astronomers estimate the distance of nearby objects in space by using a method called stellar parallax, or trigonometric parallax. Simply put, they measure a star's apparent movement against the background of more distant stars as Earth revolves around the sun.
