Astronomical Unit

An astronomical unit (AU) is a unit of distance used in astronomy to describe the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. It equals about 149.6 million kilometers (or about 93 million miles). The AU is useful for measuring distances within our solar system, such as the distance from Earth to other planets. For example, Mars is about 1.5 AU from the Sun. Using the AU makes it easier to understand and compare distances between planets without dealing with very large numbers. The symbol for astronomical unit is "AU".

Megameter

A megameter (Mm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to 1 million meters (1 Mm = 10⁶ meters or 1,000 kilometers). Megameters are used to measure very large distances, typically on a global or planetary scale. For example, the Earth’s diameter is about 12.7 megameters. Although it’s a valid metric unit, the megameter is rarely used in everyday life or science, as kilometers or other astronomical units are more common for such distances.
