Earth's Equatorial Radius
The Earth's equatorial radius is the distance from the center of the Earth to the equator, approximately 6,378.1 kilometers.
History/Origin
The size and shape of the Earth have been a subject of study since ancient times. Modern measurements are made using satellite geodesy.
Current Use
The Earth's equatorial radius is a fundamental parameter in geodesy, geophysics, and astronomy. It is used in cartography and for defining the shape of the Earth.
Nautical League (Uk)
A nautical league was a unit of length in the UK, equal to three nautical miles.
History/Origin
The nautical league was based on the nautical mile, which was historically defined as one minute of arc of a great circle of the Earth. The UK adopted the international nautical mile in 1970.
Current Use
The nautical league is now an obsolete unit.
