About these units

Micrometer (µm)

A micrometer, or micron, is one-millionth of a meter. It occupies an important niche between nanometer-scale molecular measurements and millimeter-scale visible objects. The micrometer is essential in biology, where it measures cells, bacteria, and tissue structures; in materials science, where it expresses grain sizes and coating thicknesses; and in optics, where it represents wavelengths of infrared radiation. Manufacturing processes, especially semiconductor and micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), rely heavily on micrometer precision. Even slight variations of a few micrometers can significantly alter performance or failure rates. The accessibility of micrometer-level imaging through modern microscopes has made this unit foundational to many scientific fields.

Earth's Distance from Sun (AU (es))

The average distance from the Earth to the Sun is approximately 1 astronomical unit (AU) = 149,597,870.7 km. This distance forms the basis for measuring interplanetary distances within the solar system. Astronomers rely on the AU to calculate orbital periods, planetary alignments, and the intensity of solar radiation at different planets. Its precise measurement comes from radar ranging to planets, spacecraft telemetry, and observations of orbital mechanics. The AU provides a human-scaled reference for the vast distances in the solar system, bridging Earth-based intuition with astronomical scales. It is a cornerstone unit in celestial mechanics and planetary science.
