Gigameter


A gigameter (Gm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to 1 billion meters (1 Gm = 10⁹ meters). Gigameters are used to measure very large distances, often within the solar system. For example, the average distance from Earth to the Sun is about 150 gigameters, or 1 astronomical unit (AU). While not commonly used in everyday life, gigameters are helpful in astronomy and space science to describe distances between planets or other celestial bodies.


Nautical League


A nautical league is a unit of distance once used at sea, mainly by sailors and navigators. It equals 3 nautical miles, which is about 5.56 kilometers or 3.45 miles. Nautical leagues were used to measure longer distances during voyages before modern navigation tools became common. While the nautical mile is still widely used today in maritime and aviation navigation, the nautical league is mostly obsolete and rarely used.
