Abstract

Using VLBI phase referencing, we have been registering the position of the most blue-shifted OH 1667 MHz maser spot with respect to nearby extragalactic reference sources for almost seven years. The data for these 10 epochs allow us to determine the proper motion and parallax of U Her. It also yields the opportunity to compare the maser position to the position of the star, as measured by the Hipparcos satellite. Results support the theory that the compact bright spot is the amplified stellar image.
