The problem with annual "parallax" as measurement is that, unless you presume it is the Earth that moves each year, rather than Sun 360° round Zodiak, and Proxima Centauri (et c. some 10.000 stars with measured annual parallax in 1980) 0.76" around its center (and less for all other of those 10.000 stars), you have no one length and two angles, you have one angle and no length, and therefore no triangulation.*

A message from Mr. Sungenis arrived, he wrote:
Do you have Galileo Was Wrong, the book?
If you do, read the section on Parallax in volume 1, then get back to me.
Since unfortunately I have not the book, I hand the reference on to readers who may have it.
Product details for Galileo Was Wrong on site.
