I guess we would need two telescopes very far apart in order to get stereo images?
Wouldn't any two points converge at the horizon, considering the distances involved, otherwise?
- JKCalhoun 2y agoAndromeda is a whole other beast, but I understand we've done something similar for bodies in our Milky Way using two ends of Earth's trip around the sun.
- dylan604 2y agoOr use the same telescope by taking images 6 months apart so the earth is in opposite position in its orbit
- sapiogram 2y agoYeah, Andromeda is way too far away. The Gaia mission was custom-built to do exactly this kind of "stereo" imaging of stars in our own galaxy, but it's still not sensitive enough to cover the entire Milky Way.
