Parsec
A parsec is a unit of length used to measure the large distances to astronomical objects outside the Solar System, approximately equal to 3.26 light-years. It is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
History/Origin
The term "parsec" is a portmanteau of "parallax" and "second," coined by British astronomer Herbert Hall Turner in 1913.
Current Use
The parsec is the preferred unit of distance in astronomy and astrophysics for expressing the distances to stars and galaxies.
Famn
A famn is an obsolete Swedish unit of length, equivalent to 3 aln or about 1.78 meters.
History/Origin
The famn was the Swedish version of the fathom, based on the span of outstretched arms.
Current Use
The famn is no longer in use.
