Astronomical Unit (a.u.) of Length


The astronomical unit (a.u.) is a unit of length used primarily in astronomy to describe distances within our solar system. It is defined as the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.


Key facts:



  • 1 astronomical unit ≈ 149,597,870.7 kilometers (about 93 million miles)



  • Used to measure distances between planets and other objects in the solar system



  • Provides a convenient scale for expressing space distances that are too large for kilometers but too small for light-years



The astronomical unit helps astronomers communicate and calculate orbits, planetary positions, and space missions with clarity and precision.



Statute League


A statute league is a traditional unit of distance used primarily on land and defined as 3 statute miles, which equals about 4.83 kilometers or 15,840 feet. It was commonly used in English-speaking countries for measuring distances before the metric system became widespread. The statute league is different from the nautical league, which is based on nautical miles and used at sea. Although largely obsolete today, the statute league is still found in historical texts and older maps.
