The official unit for length is the meter. The kilometer (1000 meters) is often used in practice. Larger distances/lengths are often expressed in meters or kilometers; if the numbers are very large, scientific notation is used. On the other hand, in astronomy the following non-SI units are often used for very large distances:
- The astronomical unit, which is the average distance from Sun to Earth. Approximately 150 million km.
- The light-year, the distance light travels in a year. Approximately 9.5 x 1012 km.
- The parsec - a hypothetical star at that distance would have a parallax of 1 arc-second (all stars except the Sun are at a distance of more than 1 parsec). 1 parsec is approximately 3.26 light-years. Prefixes such as kilo- and mega- are sometimes used with parsec.
