Stellar Parallax appears to be one of the biggest scams in scientific history. If you really want to understand this subject, please read the papers by Dr. Neville Thomas Jones,
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1460071I had a feeling this thread was connected to geocentrism. Sure enough, no sooner do I make note of that than Neville Jones links start popping up. Yes, here's a guy who, in order to explain the existence of geostationary satellites in geocentrism, denies the inverse square law of gravity and the law of inertia. He claims that velocity ceases as soon as a spacecraft's engines are cut off. Yes, this means he claims that deep space travel is a hoax (manned AND unmanned) with the exception of ion engine powered missions, which must run the engines at all times. It's hysterically bad.
