Convert megameter to Earth's distance from sun
Please provide values below to convert megameter [Mm] to Earth's distance from sun [AU_dist], or Convert Earth's distance from sun to megameter.
1 Mm = 6.68458712227e-06 AU_dist. To convert megameter to Earth's distance from sun, multiply the value by 6.68458712227e-06; to go the other way, divide by it (1 AU_dist = 149597.8707 Mm). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 Mm = 6.68458712227e-06 AU_dist

Megameter
A megameter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^6 meters.
History/Origin
The prefix "mega-" for 10^6 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1873.
Current Use
The megameter is sometimes used to specify the diameters of planets and the distances of satellites.
Earth's Distance From Sun
The Earth's distance from the Sun varies throughout the year. The average distance is defined as one astronomical unit (AU), which is about 149.6 million kilometers.
History/Origin
The measurement of the Earth-Sun distance has a long history, with early estimates made by ancient Greek astronomers. Modern measurements are highly precise.
Current Use
The Earth-Sun distance is a fundamental unit in astronomy and is used to measure distances within the solar system.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 megameter in Earth's distance from sun?
1 megameter (Mm) = 6.68458712227e-06 Earth's distance from sun (AU_dist).
How do you convert megameter to Earth's distance from sun?
