Question

How do I convert km into parsecs and vice versa?

Answer 1

1 parsec = 30.857×10 to the power of 12 km

Answer 2

a parsec is 30.857 petametres (3.0857*10^13 meters)

km to parsec (km/3.0857*10^13)

parsec to km (km*3.0857*10^13)

Answer 3

One parsec is 30 million million kilometres - no wonder they have a special word for it..

So parsecs multiplied by 30 million million, will give you distance in kms.

Or kms divided by 30 million million, will give you number of parsecs.

It's all beyond man's imagination !
