Light year (ly) to Astronomical unit (AU)

Info about "Light year"

A light-year refers to the distance of light (in a vacuum) within one year. There are different definitions for a year (Gregorian year, tropical year, Julian year etc.), therefore the Julian year (365.25 days) was used as a definition for the light year. A light-year is converted to 9,460,730,472,580.8 km, around 9.5 trillion km. For example, the Milky Way is 100,000 light-years long because distance is difficult to measure in kilometers.

Info about "Astronomical unit"

The astronomical unit (AU) is a unit of length in astronomy. By definition, the AU is 149,597,870,700 meters long, which is almost the average distance between the Earth and Sun.

Apart from the light-year and the parsec, the astronomical unit is one of the most important astronomical units of length. AU has been very important in history because most measurements were performed using AU and not meters. In 2012, the conversion between astronomical units and meters is precisely calculated and AU is no longer an advantage. However, the distance in the Solar System is still often specified in AU because of its more practical values.

Basis for conversion Light year (ly) to Astronomical unit (AU) and vice versa
