Eye glasses,
Any magnifying instrument.
Lenses, such as in binoculars or telescopes, are used to make distant things appear near by focusing and magnifying the light from those objects onto our eyes. This allows us to see distant objects with greater clarity and detail.
Waldo Tobler's First Law of Geography states that "Everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things." This principle emphasizes the notion that spatial relationships and interactions are stronger among nearby locations compared to those that are further apart.
antonym: near, close
You have two eyes, away from each by about 6 cm. The object placed nearby makes a larger angle to both eyes as compared to distant object. From that angle, you make out the distance of the object from you. Stars are too far away for human eyes (or any animal eyes, for that purpose.) to make smaller or bigger angle. They all make the smallest possible angle witch can be recognized by naked eyes and so you can not differentiate between near or distant star. All of them are distant objects for human eyes.
The ciliary muscles are responsible for changing the shape of the lens in the eye so that you can focus on near or distant objects. When these muscles contract, they thicken the lens for near vision, and when they relax, the lens becomes thinner for distant vision.
synonym = far antonym = close, near
If a distant star has a slight back and forth motion then it may be located near a planet. The gravitational force of the planet will cause the star to move.
Near-sighted means able to see things clearly only when up close, that distant objects are less clear. Another term is "myopia." In the opposite condition, farsightedness (hyperopia), objects are clearer at a distance than they are up close.
The near future is 'shourai,' while the distant future is 'mirai.'

Not necessarily. Stars within a constellation are the same general direction from Earth, but one may be much more distant than the other.
