Parsec
A parsec (pc) is a unit of distance used in astronomy, equal to about 3.26 light-years or roughly 31 trillion kilometers. The name “parsec” comes from “parallax of one arcsecond,” referring to the method astronomers use to measure distances to nearby stars based on their apparent shift when viewed from different positions in Earth’s orbit. Parsecs are commonly used to measure distances to stars and galaxies. For example, the nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, is about 1.3 parsecs away. The symbol for parsec is "pc". It’s a convenient unit for expressing large astronomical distances beyond the reach of light-years.
Vara Conuquera
The vara conuquera is a traditional Spanish unit of length used historically in some parts of Spain and Spanish America, especially in land measurement. It is a regional variation of the vara, which generally measures around 33 inches (about 0.84 meters), but the vara conuquera specifically is associated with the unit used for measuring conucos—small agricultural plots or gardens.
The length of the vara conuquera could vary locally but was typically similar to or a fraction of the standard vara. It was used primarily in rural land surveying and agriculture to define plots and land boundaries.
Summary:
Vara conuquera: a regional variant of the vara
Approximately 0.83 to 0.84 meters (varied by region)
Used historically for measuring small agricultural plots (conucos)
Common in Spanish and Latin American land measurement contexts
Today, the vara conuquera is mostly of historical interest, reflecting old land measurement traditions.
