About these units

Pound (lb)

The pound is a traditional unit of mass widely used in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in the United Kingdom. Defined as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms, the pound evolved from medieval English systems that themselves descended from Roman and Carolingian traditions. The pound is central to commerce, engineering, food measurement, and body weight scales in the US. Its widespread cultural presence makes it deeply familiar even in contexts where metric units dominate. Because the pound is part of a non-decimal system, subdivisions such as ounces (1/16 pound) introduce complexity, yet this structure persists due to tradition and embedded industrial standards. In engineering, the pound often appears alongside pound-force, making careful distinction between mass and force essential.

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.
