100 petametres
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from 1 E17 m)
To help compare different distances this page lists lengths between 1017 m (100 Pm or 11 light years) and 1018 m (110 light years).
- 110 Pm — 12 light years — Distance to Tau Ceti
- 240 Pm — 25 light years — Distance to Vega
- 260 Pm — 27 light years — Distance to Chara, a star approximately as bright as our Sun. Its faintness gives us an idea how our Sun would appear when viewed from even so close a distance as this.
- 350 Pm — 24 light years — Diameter of the Orion Nebula[1][2]
- 350 Pm — 37 light years — Distance to Arcturus
- 400 Pm — 42 light years — Distance to Capella
- 620 Pm — 65 light years — Distance to Aldebaran
