The wavelength of light from a distant galaxy can be analyzed using the redshift phenomenon, where light stretches and shifts to longer wavelengths as the galaxy moves away from Earth. By measuring this redshift, astronomers can determine the galaxy's velocity relative to us. Using Hubble's Law, which relates the velocity of a galaxy to its distance from Earth, they can calculate the galaxy's distance based on its observed redshift. This method is crucial for understanding the expansion of the universe and the distribution of galaxies.
Near object form bigger angle and distant objects form smaller angle. From this angle formed, you can judge the distance between near and distant objects. But their is limit to the smallest angle, you can perceive. That is why you can not note difference between the near and distant stars.
