Why use exagram/second for mass flow measurements?

Exagram/second quantifies extremely large mass flow rates, often found in astrophysics and space science contexts where vast mass transfers occur.

When should I convert mass flow from exagram/second to pound/second?

Conversion is useful when expressing very large scientific mass flow rates in more familiar imperial units for engineering, propulsion testing, or industrial reporting.

Are there any challenges using huge mass flow values in conversions?

Yes, very large values may cause computational overflow or loss of precision, so care must be taken during calculations.
