What does one angstrom represent?

One angstrom (Å) is a unit of length equal to 1×10⁻¹⁰ metres, commonly used to describe atomic and molecular scale distances.

What is a megameter used for?

A megameter (Mm) is an SI unit equal to one million metres, used to express large terrestrial or planetary distances.

Why convert angstroms to megameters?

Converting angstroms to megameters helps compare microscopic atomic scales to much larger regional or planetary scales for scientific modeling and analysis.
