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.

Vara Castellana (vara castellana)

The Vara Castellana is the traditional Castilian vara, approximately 0.8359 meters in length, and was widely used throughout Spain for centuries. Its application extended to construction, tailoring, agriculture, and property measurement, serving as a versatile unit bridging everyday tasks and formal documentation. The vara's influence reached Spain's colonies, where regional variations arose, adapting the unit to local measurement conventions. In architecture, artisans used the Vara Castellana to proportion buildings, plan streets, and ensure symmetry, making it central to civil and domestic design. Although no longer in practical use, the Vara Castellana remains crucial for historians, architects, and legal researchers examining pre-metric Spain and Latin America.
