Frequently Asked Questions

What is a statute mile?
A statute mile is a unit of length equal to exactly 1,609.344 metres, commonly used in road distances in the US and UK.

What does one light year represent?
A light year is the distance light travels in vacuum over one Julian year, approximately 9.4607 × 10^15 metres.

Why convert miles to light years?
Converting miles to light years helps relate Earth-based distances to astronomical scales, aiding education and theoretical calculations.

Key Terminology
