What are Megaparsec and Mile

Definition of Megaparsec

A Megaparsec, abbreviated as Mpc, is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure vast cosmic distances. One Megaparsec is equivalent to one million parsecs, or approximately 3.26 million light-years. This unit helps astronomers to express the distances between galaxies and other astronomical objects in a manageable numerical form.

Definition of Mile

A mile is a unit of length predominantly used in the United States and the United Kingdom. It is equal to 5,280 feet, or 1,760 yards. The mile is part of the imperial system of measurement and is used in various fields such as transportation to indicate travel distances and speed limits.
