Well, obviously this is an error because a 6 arcmin difference @ a distance of 425 light years would be a, about, 4.5 light years "jump". That would be impossible of course, except if someone could teleport all of the Polaris system! Even Scotty couldn't do that, LOL. The proper motion of Polaris is very small
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29198641 This past week either in Space.Com or in NASA websites, or perhaps it was Physics.Org, the statement was given that the "standard" distance of Polaris was discovered to be off by a considerable factor. Something in teh 3xx.00 range of light years. I suppose one could find it if they bothered. Yeah, I'll say the measurements, as per the article(who knows what to believe anymore from Never A Straight Answer or other Gooberment & Gobberment funded, agencies), were stated, not to be slightly off but about 25% off. That is a HUGE discrepancy!
