Earth’s Distance from the Sun

The average distance between the Earth and the Sun is known as an Astronomical Unit (AU).

It is approximately 149.6 million kilometers (about 93 million miles).
This distance varies slightly throughout the year because Earth’s orbit is elliptical—closest at perihelion (~147.1 million km) and farthest at aphelion (~152.1 million km).
The astronomical unit is a fundamental standard for measuring distances within our solar system.

Key facts:

Average distance ≈ 149.6 million km (1 AU)
Varies due to elliptical orbit
Basis for measuring planetary distances

Understanding Earth’s distance from the Sun is essential for studying seasons, climate, and orbital mechanics.

Nail (Cloth)

A nail is a traditional unit of length used in cloth measurement, equal to 2¼ inches or approximately 5.715 centimeters. It was commonly used by tailors and fabric merchants in England to measure small lengths of fabric.

The term “nail” likely originates from the practice of marking lengths on a measuring stick with notches or nails, making it easy to measure fabric quickly. The nail was a convenient subdivision of the yard, with 1 yard = 16 nails.

Though obsolete today, the nail remains an interesting part of historical textile measurement systems.

Summary:

1 nail = 2¼ inches (5.715 cm)
1 yard = 16 nails
Used historically in tailoring and fabric trade
Originates from notches or nails on measuring sticks
