Now by well known laws tho relative

matter to find the distance In miles be

Just three tunes ns far from us as Venus
nnd one observing station GiOO miles
north nf tho other thu parallel paths
on the Min would bo 3000 miles apart

tho two paths if we could In somu wny

observer tho problem of tho suns dis
