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.
Yard
A yard is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement, equal to 3 feet or 36 inches.
History/Origin
The origin of the yard is uncertain, but it is believed to have been derived from the length of a man's belt or girdle. The yard was standardized as part of the English (and later British Imperial) system of units.
Current Use
The yard is commonly used for measuring land, in some sports like American football and golf, and for selling fabric.
