About these units

Foot/Hour (ft/h)

A foot per hour is almost comically slow, yet still relevant in specific technical fields. Pipeline corrosion creep, structural deformation, glacial shifts, and certain chemical processes may be measured in ft/h when imperial units are required. While practically invisible to human perception, speeds expressed in ft/h become meaningful over long intervals, providing insight into incremental natural or mechanical change.

Kilometer/Second (km/s)

A kilometer per second represents a very high speed—1,000 meters every second—and is particularly important in astronomy, planetary science, and astrophysics. Orbital velocities around planets, escape velocities, solar winds, and the motion of stars relative to each other are commonly measured in km/s. This scale captures speeds far beyond terrestrial transportation. For example, Earth orbits the Sun at roughly 30 km/s, and meteoroids entering Earth's atmosphere may arrive at speeds between 11 and 72 km/s. km/s is a natural step up from m/s when describing the motion of celestial bodies.
