It will be able to observe the distance of a star from our Galaxy with a
20% precision

That means, they will use triangulation, to directly find the distance. So,
it will disprove theories that says universe is younger than that.

Maybe I'm just too dumb to follow, but does distance have to do with age?
Are you saying that the shortest distance they will measure is 30,000 light
years, hence the age is 30,000 years?

In this case, yes. The curvature is negligible and light speed, so you can
take the distance as a measure of time. This is true, such that the method
to measure the distance is parallax.

Hmmm... That's interesting, Cause I saw Obama's motorcade in Pensylvannia Ave
in Washington DC this morning. They were travelling at 50mph. I'm 300 miles
away right now. So, I guess Bambi must have started his travel 6 hours ago,
since It would take them 6 hours to travel 300 miles at 50
It's not obvious, if you were to apply the same method to distant galaxies,
such as those at z~8, you'd find they were receding at ~8 times the speed
of light and their distance would be close to 100 billion light years. But
that would be due divergence of the light rays due dilatation of space

300 miles away?
I thought you lived in the Philippians.
You visiting?

No, I'm not in the Philippians, I'm in the Philippines, and I did not see
Bambi's motorcade in Pensylvannia Ave either.
