  1. heliocentric parallax

    Heliocentric parallax is a measure of the angular shift or displacement in the position of a celestial body observed from two different points: one from the Earth's surface and the other from a hypothetical point at the center of the Sun (heliocentric point). It is used in astronomy to measure the distances of nearby stars and planets. This form of parallax arises due to the change in an observer's position caused by the Earth's yearly orbit around the Sun.
