About these units

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.

Meters (m)

The meter is the SI base unit of length, defined by the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second. All other metric lengths are decimal multiples of it.
