Description

Light-Year (ly): Measuring the Speed of Light Over Time

The light-year (symbol: ly) measures how far light travels in one year—about 9.46 trillion kilometers. It's used to express astronomical distances beyond our solar system.

Light-years convey the vastness of the universe and the time it takes light to traverse it.

Petameter (Pm): Navigating the Cosmos

The petameter (symbol: Pm) equals one quadrillion meters. This colossal unit is essential in the realms of astrophysics and cosmology, where it describes interstellar and intergalactic distances. It's used when even terameters fall short of the immense spans under observation.

By using petameters, scientists can better conceptualize and study the massive scale of the observable universe.
