Reed
A reed is an ancient unit of length, typically about 6 cubits or around 9 feet.
History/Origin
The reed was a common unit of measurement in ancient Mesopotamia and the surrounding regions.
Current Use
The reed is an obsolete unit of measurement.
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.
