Parallax and Distance Measurement. Astronomers use an effect called parallax to measure distances to nearby stars. Parallax is the apparent displacement of an object because of a change in the observer's point of view. ... The distance d is measured in parsecs and the parallax angle p is measured in arcseconds.
