Kilometers
A kilometre is quite a long unit of measurement. For this reason you would use it to measure large things on earth. For example:The distance between citiesThe length of a coastlineHow far a train journey is
Feet
A location is the position which is usually measure in terms of a fixed point of reference, which is called the origin. In n-dimensional space the location may be defined in terms of distances from origin along orthogonal axes (n axes), or in terms of distance and direction (one measure of distance and n-1 angles). Location on the surface of a sphere, for example the earth, can be defined by only two angles (the latitude and longitude) and no distance because the distance is implied (radius of the earth).
its 5.927 sextillion metric tons
The distance from Earth is about 6,500 light years (2000 parsecs).
metric system as it is worked on calculation of the distance of earth from the sun. and use's that as a frame of reference. Kevin
AU is not used to measure the distances on earth, because a astronomical unit is a unit of measurement equal to the distance between Earth and Sun. So that's why you cannot use Au for measure the distances on Earth.
Light Year is unit for all astronomic distances
Light year is used to measure the stellar distances whereas miles and km is used to measure distance on Earth.
You first measure the distance between the points as shown on the map, then you compare that measurement with the map scale.
There are many units for measuring length and distance . S.I units for length and distance is meter (m).
scientists use light-years to measure long distances in space. a light year, (abrviated ly) is the distance light can travel.
Parallax is the method that astronomers use to measure the distance from the sun to the earth.

There are MANY units used to measure distances both in Metric and in English types. We use Feet and Yards to measure distances in the US. The academic field often uses metric units like meters and kilometers to measure distances. For larger or massive distances there are the units of miles (English) and Kilomiters (Metric) and then in space we have the Astonomical Unit (Distance from earth to Sun) and the Light Year for the biggest distances. And there are the smaller measures of inches and millimeters.
Celsius is a measure of temperature, not distance.
Since the metric system is the system of measurement used in all sciences, Celsius is usually the form of temperature measurement used.
