Most pulsating variable stars inhabit a section of the H-R diagram called the instability strip. A special category of very luminous pulsating variables lies at the top of this strip: the Cepheid Variables, or Cepheids for short. These stars fluctuate in luminosity with periods of a few days to a few months. In 1912, Henrietta Leavitt, an astronomer at Harvard, discovered that the periods of these stars are very closely related to their luminosities. The longer the period, the more luminous the star. This Period-Luminosity Relation is seen to be true because larger (and hence more luminous) Cepheids take longer to pulsate back and forth in size.
So if two Cepheids have have the same period then they have the same brightness.
But if one appears dimmer it must be further away.
they are going to easily ramble approximately how technology is now and back innacurate then factor to various time whilst technology has been incorrect. they'll then grumble slightly and factor to the bible and say something approximately jesus. you could not argue with that form of stupidity.

So galaxy B is further away than Galaxy A
