Light Year
A light-year is the distance that light travels in a vacuum in one Julian year.
History/Origin
The concept of the light-year as a unit of distance in astronomy emerged in the mid-19th century. The first recorded use of the term was in a German astronomical publication in 1851.
Current Use
The light-year is used to express distances to stars and other astronomical objects on a galactic and intergalactic scale, especially in popular science and non-specialist contexts.
Aln
An aln is an obsolete Swedish unit of length, roughly equivalent to 2 Swedish feet or about 59 centimeters.
History/Origin
The aln was the Swedish version of the ell, a common unit of length for measuring cloth throughout Europe.
Current Use
The aln is no longer in use.
