Convert megaparsec to nautical mile (UK)
Please provide values below to convert megaparsec [Mpc] to nautical mile (UK) [NM (UK)], or Convert nautical mile (UK) to megaparsec.
1 Mpc = 1.6651e+19 NM (UK). To convert megaparsec to nautical mile (UK), multiply the value by 1.6651e+19; to go the other way, divide by it (1 NM (UK) = 6.0058e-20 Mpc). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

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.
Nautical Mile (Uk)
The UK nautical mile, or Admiralty mile, was defined as 6,080 feet.
History/Origin
The British Admiralty defined its nautical mile as a thousandth of an imperial nautical mile. The UK adopted the international nautical mile of 1,852 meters in 1970.
Current Use
The UK nautical mile is an obsolete unit.
