Scientists mainly use Astrological Units [abbre. AU ] to measure distances within the Solar System. 1 Astrological Unit is somewhere around 49,580,000 - 49,590,000 kilometers, or roughly 49,600,000 kilometers if you prefer to round up.

AstroNOMICAL, NOT Astrological!
Astronomy is the science, using Astronomical Units.
Astrology is collective name for an assortment of similar, semi-religious beliefs.

The astronomical unit (AU) is the most useful unit for measuring distances within the solar system. One AU is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, approximately 93 million miles (150 million kilometers). It provides a convenient scale for expressing distances within our solar system.
AU (Astronomical Unit)
To measure the distances between planets is AU's.
standard SI units, e.g. m and km for distances

The universe is measured in lightyears
Astronomical units (AU) are used for measuring distances within our solar system because they are based on the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. For objects outside our solar system, distances are so vast that AU becomes impractical. Instead, light years or parsecs are commonly used to describe stellar distances.
Probably AUs or Astronomical Units. 1AU= 93 million miles or about 150 million km. 1AU is the distance from the Earth to the Sun.
An AU is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, approximately 93 million miles. It is used as a convenient unit for measuring distances within our solar system.
The distances of the Earth are typically measured in kilometers (km) or miles (mi). Alternatively, astronomical units (AU), which is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, can also be used to measure distances within the solar system.
Astronomical units (AU) are commonly used to measure distances within our solar system. One astronomical unit is approximately equal to the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, which is about 93 million miles (150 million kilometers).

Not sure whether it is in any way more "useful", but a common unit of measurement for distances within the Solar System is the AU.SI units, especially meters and kilometers, are also used, though.
Astronomical units are used as a convenient way to measure distances within the solar system, based on the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. Using astronomical units helps simplify calculations and comparisons of distances. It provides a standardized reference point for discussing planetary orbits and positions.
Distances in space are typically measured in light-years, which is the distance light travels in one year. This unit is used because of the vastness of space and the limitations of human-made measuring systems. Additionally, astronomical units (AU) are used to measure distances within our solar system, with 1 AU being the average distance from the Earth to the Sun.
light years
You can use kilometers if you like. On the other hand, distances within the Solar System are often quoted in AU (astronomical units), where 1 astronomical unit is the distance from Sun to Earth. Such distances are easier to visualize.
The units currently used for distance between stars are either light-years, or parsecs. If the stars are very close together (as in a binary system), AU might also be used.
This unit is mainly used for distances within the Solar System.
A fixed location in space is a point in the three-dimensional coordinate system that remains constant and does not change its position relative to other points. It serves as a reference or anchor point for measuring distances and positions within a specific frame of reference.
An AU is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, approximately 93 million miles. It is used as a convenient unit for measuring distances within our solar system.
A micrometer is used to measure very small distances.
