Light Year

A light year is a unit of distance used in astronomy to measure how far light travels in one year. Light moves extremely fast—about 299,792 kilometers per second—so in one year, it travels roughly 9.46 trillion kilometers (or about 5.88 trillion miles). Light years help scientists express the huge distances between stars and galaxies. For example, the nearest star to Earth, Proxima Centauri, is about 4.24 light years away. The term “light year” can be confusing because it sounds like a measure of time, but it actually measures distance.

Twip

A twip (short for twentieth of a point) is a very small unit of length used in digital typography and computer graphics. It equals 1/20 of a typographic point, or 1/1440 of an inch.

Key facts:

1 twip = 1/20 point = 1/1440 inch ≈ 0.01764 millimeters
Used in software and digital layout to specify very fine measurements for text, spacing, and graphics
Helps achieve high precision in formatting and display, especially in word processors and graphic design programs

Twips allow for detailed control over layout and formatting beyond what whole points can provide, ensuring smooth and precise rendering on screens and printers.
