About these units
Cosmic Velocity - Third (v₃)
The third cosmic velocity is the speed required to escape the entire Solar System from Earth's orbit, overcoming the gravitational pull of the Sun. This speed is approximately 16.7 km/s, though missions often achieve this gradually using gravitational assists rather than brute-force acceleration. Space probes such as Voyager 1, Voyager 2, and New Horizons have exceeded v₃, making them interstellar travelers. The third cosmic velocity represents the threshold where an object ceases to be bound to the Sun and begins drifting through the galaxy—one of the most profound expansions of human technological capability.
Yard/Second (yd/s)
A yard per second is a moderately fast speed, equal to 3 ft/s or 0.9144 m/s, used in some athletic contexts—particularly American football or sprinting analysis. It provides an intuitive measure for sports where yard-based distances dominate. Because the unit aligns with common field dimensions, it simplifies performance evaluation in training and gameplay. The yard per second reflects the enduring influence of imperial measurements in American athletics.
