International Nautical League


The international nautical league is a standardized version of the nautical league used in maritime navigation. It is defined as exactly 3 international nautical miles, which equals 5,556 meters or about 3.45 miles. This standardization helps avoid confusion caused by variations in historical definitions of the league. While the nautical mile remains the primary unit in modern navigation, the international nautical league provides a consistent way to measure longer distances at sea when needed.


Kiloparsec


A kiloparsec (kpc) is a unit of distance used in astronomy equal to 1,000 parsecs, or about 3,260 light-years. It is commonly used to measure distances within and between galaxies. For example, the Milky Way galaxy is about 30 kiloparsecs in diameter. Kiloparsecs help astronomers describe large-scale structures in space more conveniently than using light-years alone. The symbol for kiloparsec is "kpc". It’s an important unit for understanding the size and scale of galaxies and their components.
