Convert megaparsec to link (US survey)
Please provide values below to convert megaparsec [Mpc] to link (US survey) [li (US)], or Convert link (US survey) to megaparsec.
1 Mpc = 1.5339e+23 li (US). To convert megaparsec to link (US survey), multiply the value by 1.5339e+23; to go the other way, divide by it (1 li (US) = 6.5194e-24 Mpc). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 Mpc = 1.5339e+23 li (US)
- 1 li (US) = 6.5194e-24 Mpc
- 10 Mpc = 1.5339e+24 li (US)
- 100 Mpc = 1.5339e+25 li (US)
How to Convert Megaparsec to Link (Us Survey)
1 Mpc = 1.53387785855075e+23 li (US)
Example: convert 15 Mpc to li (US):
15 Mpc = 15 × 1.53387785855075e+23 li (US) = 2.30081678782613e+24 li (US)

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.
Link (Us Survey)
A U.S. survey link is a unit of length equal to 1/100 of a U.S. survey chain.
History/Origin
The U.S. survey link is based on the U.S. survey foot. The use of survey units was officially phased out in 2022.
Current Use
The U.S. survey link was used for land surveying in the United States.
