What is the angular distance of an object?

The angular distance of an object refers to the angle formed between two lines drawn from a specific point (such as an observer's eye) to the object in question. It is typically measured in degrees, radians, or arcminutes. This measurement helps in locating celestial bodies in the sky or determining the position of objects in relation to one another. Essentially, it quantifies how far apart two objects appear in the sky from a given viewpoint.
