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.

Terameter (Tm)

A terameter equals one trillion meters (10¹² m) and is used when discussing distances that exceed the scale of the solar system but do not yet reach the interstellar unit category. Large-scale solar system phenomena—such as the size of the heliosphere, the influence boundary of the Sun's magnetic field, or trajectories of far-reaching spacecraft—may be expressed in terameters. While not widely used in astronomical literature (which often prefers astronomical units, light-years, or parsecs), the terameter provides a SI-based unit that aligns cleanly with metric prefixes. It is especially useful in theoretical physics or cosmological modeling where sticking to SI units simplifies equations.
