About these units
Megaparsec (Mpc)
A megaparsec is equal to one million parsecs, making it one of the principal units for describing intergalactic distances and the scale of the observable universe. Astronomers use Mpc to measure the distances between galaxies, galaxy groups, and galaxy clusters, as well as to express the scale of cosmic structures like the cosmic web. Megaparsecs are also central to cosmology because the Hubble constant — which describes the rate of cosmic expansion — is measured in units of kilometers per second per megaparsec. Thus, the Mpc sits at the heart of research on dark energy, large-scale structure formation, and the Big Bang. While hardly intuitive for everyday understanding, the megaparsec offers unmatched practicality for professional astronomy. It simplifies equations and visualization of the universe at the grandest scales.
Nautical League (Int) (nl (int))
The international nautical league is defined as 3 international nautical miles, or 5,556 meters. It simplifies the expression of moderately large maritime distances by grouping nautical miles into a more manageable larger unit. Because nautical miles relate directly to Earth's geometry, the nautical league also maintains a connection to latitude and longitude. While not widely used in modern navigation—pilots and mariners typically stick to nautical miles and knots—nautical leagues still appear in older literature, historical accounts of sea voyages, and some naval traditions. They offer narrative convenience when describing long journeys without resorting to extremely large numbers. The unit highlights the tendency of sailors to create practical, scaled units that simplify communication during long-distance travel.
