any astrophysicists here?
is this how you calculate the distance to a star (discluding
parallax. parallax is gay)
______________________________

Measure λmax through observation

Wien’s Law: λmax = b / T Calculate surface
temperature

Stefan-Boltzmann law: luminosity = σT4 calculate
luminosity

Measure starlight intensity through observation (all
wavelengths)

Intensity = luminosity / 4πD2

Therefore 4πD2 = luminosity / intensity

Calculate D (distance to star)

this is like a monoid thread, only slightly different

its like a monoid thread, except that it's not remotely
depressing or suicudal, and is about astrophysics.

i'd say monoid has created a thread or two about
astrophysics in his time.

his name is monoid, after all.
