A kiloparsec (symbol: kpc) is one thousand parsecs, a unit of distance used to measure the distance between galactic bodies. 1 kiloparsec = 1000 parsecs = 3260 light years.
The light-second is a unit of length useful in astronomy, telecommunications and relativistic physics. It is defined as the distance that light travels in free space in one second, and is equal to exactly 2997 ..more definition+
In relation to the base unit of [length] => (meters), 1 Kiloparsecs (kpc) is equal to 3.086E+19 meters, while 1 Light Seconds (ls) = 299800000 meters.| 1 Kiloparsecs | to common length units |
