Petaflops.
Petaflop
- A petaflop can be expressed as a thousand trillion floating point operations per second; it is a measure of performance for the fastest computers in the world, used in discussions of supercomputing.
A petaflop is a measure of a computer's processing speed:- A thousand trillion floating point operations per second (FLOPS)
A measure larger than a trillion is a quadrillion, which is equal to one thousand trillion or (10^{15}). Following quadrillion, the next larger measures are quintillion ((10^{18})), sextillion ((10^{21})), and septillion ((10^{24})). Each step increases by a factor of one thousand.

The unit of measure that is equal to just under 31 trillion kilometers is a light-year. A light-year is the distance that light travels in one year, which is approximately 9.46 trillion kilometers. Therefore, 31 trillion kilometers is slightly more than three light-years.

A light year measures the distance that light travels in one year, which is about 5.88 trillion miles or 9.46 trillion kilometers.
A light year measures the distance that light travels in one year, which is about 5.88 trillion miles or 9.46 trillion kilometers.
There can be no equivalence. A gigabyte is a measure of opto-electronic storage while a trillion is a pure number. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.
Light years measure distance in astronomy. It is the distance that light travels in one year, which is about 9.46 trillion kilometers.
Astronomy. It is a measure of distance in space and is equal to 19.17 trillion miles.
