Convert kiloyard to parsec
Please provide values below to convert kiloyard [kyd] to parsec [pc], or Convert parsec to kiloyard.
1 kyd = 2.9634e-14 pc. To convert kiloyard to parsec, multiply the value by 2.9634e-14; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pc = 3.3745e+13 kyd). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 kyd = 2.9634e-14 pc
- 1 pc = 3.3745e+13 kyd
- 10 kyd = 2.9634e-13 pc

Kiloyard
A kiloyard is a unit of length equal to 1,000 yards.
History/Origin
The kiloyard is not a standard or common unit of measurement. It is a logical multiple of the yard.
Current Use
The kiloyard is rarely used.
Parsec
A parsec is a unit of length used to measure the large distances to astronomical objects outside the Solar System, approximately equal to 3.26 light-years. It is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
History/Origin
The term "parsec" is a portmanteau of "parallax" and "second," coined by British astronomer Herbert Hall Turner in 1913.
Current Use
The parsec is the preferred unit of distance in astronomy and astrophysics for expressing the distances to stars and galaxies.
