Nautical mile

Nautical miles (abbreviated as INT) – used mainly in marine navigation as well as in aviation. The detailed measure of this unit corresponds to the length of the arc of the Earth’s meridian in 1 arc minute of the great circle. Since the length of the arc has a different value depending on the latitude, a constant value has been assumed. The value of a nautical mile is 1852 meters. However, until the mid-twentieth century, different values were adopted for this measure depending on the country.

Light year

Light year (abbreviated ly) – this unit is used primarily in astronomy. Its length is simply equivalent to the distance light travelled in a vacuum in 1 year. To better visualize the value of this measure, an approximate value of 9.5 trillion kilometers can be given.
