About these units
Mina (Biblical Greek) (mina (G))
The Greek mina weighed roughly 430 grams, depending on region. As with the Hebrew mina, it served as the intermediate mass unit within the Greek system. Minas appear frequently in classical literature for describing wages, commodity prices, and financial penalties. Their role in ancient bookkeeping showcases the organization of Greek economic life. A mina was traditionally divided into 100 drachmae, linking weight with monetary valuation.
Sun's Mass (M☉)
The Sun's mass, approximately 1.9885 × 10³⁰ kilograms, dominates the solar system, comprising 99.86% of all its mass. Solar mass controls planetary orbits, defines the structure of the heliosphere, and fuels stellar fusion reactions that sustain life on Earth. Astronomers use the solar mass as a comparative unit for other stars, star clusters, and black holes, making it one of the most important astronomical constants.
