About these units
Astronomical Units (AU)
An astronomical unit is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, defined as exactly 149,597,870.7 kilometers. Distances within the Solar System are usually given in AU.
Parsecs (pc)
A parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond, about 3.26 light-years or 30.9 trillion kilometers. Astronomers use it for distances to stars.
