About these units

Megameter (Mm)

The megameter, measuring one million meters (1,000 kilometers), is useful for describing large geographical or geophysical distances on planetary scales. Earth's radius (approximately 6.37 Mm) and the thickness of atmospheric layers can be expressed effectively in megameters. This unit provides a clean and compact way to represent massive distances without resorting to scientific notation. The megameter also appears in discussions of communication signals, satellite orbits, and especially planetary science. While kilometers are still more common in public-facing contexts, megameters offer a more mathematically elegant representation for large calculations. They provide a middle ground between human-scale geography and astronomical units.

Reed (reed)

The reed is a smaller unit than the long reed, typically about 1 cubit, and was widely used in Mesopotamia, Egypt, and biblical times. It functioned as a standard measure for construction, religious architecture, and land surveys. Reeds were particularly useful in field work, where repetitive human-scale measurements could be performed quickly. They also served as a practical calibration tool for larger units like rods, chains, and long reeds. The reed is frequently mentioned in ancient texts, highlighting its role in the organization of public works, the construction of sacred buildings, and the measurement of land.
