Petameters unit in Length

A petameter (Pm) is a unit of length equal to one quadrillion meters, or 10^15 meters. Petameters are used in astronomy and cosmology to describe extremely large distances, such as those between distant stars or across large sections of the universe. This unit allows for the measurement of vast stretches of space, providing a scale for the immense distances in the cosmos.

Parsecs unit in Length

A parsec (pc) is a unit of length used in astronomy, equal to approximately 3.26 light-years, or about 31 trillion kilometers. Parsecs are used to measure distances to stars and other celestial objects outside our solar system. This unit is derived from the method of parallax, where the apparent shift in position of a star relative to more distant stars is used to calculate its distance from Earth.
