gaia memes for parallax < 0.01 as connoisseurs @gaiamemes.bsky.social · 07/04/2025oversimplified: parallax to distance is a non-linear relationship, so a (symmetrical) error in parallax leads to an asymmetrical error in distance. This very nice paper by Bailer Jones describes the whole problem in detail: arxiv.org/pdf/1507.02105 or this one: arxiv.org/pdf/1804.09376arxiv.org 110 1
