Megaparsec
A megaparsec is a unit of distance used in astronomy, equal to one million parsecs.
History/Origin
The parsec was first coined by British astronomer Herbert Hall Turner in 1913. The megaparsec came into use as astronomical distance measurements extended to other galaxies.
Current Use
The megaparsec is used to measure the distances between neighboring galaxies and galaxy clusters.
Ell
The ell is an obsolete unit of length, originally used for measuring cloth. Its length varied in different countries, but it was generally around 45 inches.
History/Origin
The word "ell" is derived from the Latin "ulna," meaning "forearm," as the unit was originally based on the length of the forearm.
Current Use
The ell is no longer in use.
