What is a terameter used for?

A terameter is used to express very large distances on planetary and astronomical scales, such as interplanetary distances within the solar system.

Where are microinches applied?

Microinches are used to measure very small linear distances and fine surface finishes in engineering, such as coating thickness and surface roughness.

Why convert from terameter to microinch?

Converting from terameter to microinch helps compare extremely large distances with extremely small units for detailed scientific calculations and cross-disciplinary unit standardizations.
