How to convert Nautical Miles to Light Years
Multiply the nautical miles value by 1.9575e-13: 1 nmi = 1.9575e-13 ly. Going the other way, 1 ly = 5.1085e+12 nmi, so divide by 1.9575e-13 or use the Light Years to Nautical Miles converter.
About these units
Nautical Miles (nmi)
A nautical mile is exactly 1,852 meters, originally one minute of latitude along a meridian. Ships and aircraft measure distance in nautical miles and speed in knots.
Light Years (ly)
A light-year is the distance light travels through a vacuum in one Julian year, about 9.461 trillion kilometers. Despite the name it measures distance, not time, and is used for stars and galaxies.
