About these units
Exaliter (EL)
An exaliter, equal to 10¹⁸ liters, appears in discussions of planetary-scale volumes, such as estimating water content across extraterrestrial oceans, atmospheric volumes of gas giants, or hydrospheric mass estimates in exoplanet research. Because this unit is so large, it is rarely used in practical Earth-based science except in global summations. However, in cosmology or exoplanet studies, Vast quantities of liquids or gases on super-Earths or ocean worlds may be expressed in EL to maintain manageable numeric magnitudes. The exaliter represents the outer limits of volumetric units still grounded in physical application rather than purely abstract scaling.
Cubic Foot (ft³)
A cubic foot equals 28.31684659 liters, representing the volume of a cube one foot on each side. It is widely used in construction, real estate, natural gas metering, and HVAC systems. Room ventilation rates, airflow in ducts, and gas consumption often use cubic feet or cubic feet per minute (CFM). Storage capacity for freezers, shipping containers, and building materials also frequently uses this unit. The cubic foot's relationship to the foot makes it practical in industries where imperial length units still dominate.
