When is parallax used for?

A parallax is a change in apparent position, when YOU move. In astronomy, it usually refers to the change in the apparent position of a star, due to Earth's orbit around the Sun. It's there, whether you "use" it or not, but it is quite useful to determine distances of stars that are relatively close to us - since the farther a star is, the smaller will the parallax be. Even for the nearest star after the Sun, the parallax is smaller than one second (1/3600 of a degree).
