Petameter


A petameter (Pm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to 1 quadrillion meters (1 petameter = 10¹⁡ meters). This unit is extremely large and is used mainly in astronomy and theoretical physics to describe vast distances, such as those between stars or galaxies. For example, one petameter is about 105.7 light years. Since it measures such enormous distances, the petameter is not used in everyday life or common scientific applicationsβ€”it’s mostly used in discussions about the scale of the universe.


Mile


A mile is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom to measure long distances. One mile equals 5,280 feet or about 1.609 kilometers. Miles are often used to measure distances between cities, in running races like the mile run, or for driving distances shown on road signs. The abbreviation for mile is "mi". Although many countries use the metric system with kilometers, miles remain popular in some places for everyday distance measurements and travel.
