Difference between Light-year and Order of magnitude

Light-year vs. Order of magnitude

The light-year is a unit of length used to express astronomical distances and measures about 9.5 trillion kilometres or 5.9 trillion miles. An order of magnitude is an approximate measure of the number of digits that a number has in the commonly-used base-ten number system.

Similarities between Light-year and Order of magnitude

Light-year and Order of magnitude have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Astronomical unit, Earth, International System of Units, Long and short scales, Metre, Milky Way, Saturn.

Astronomical unit

The astronomical unit (symbol: au, ua, or AU) is a unit of length, roughly the distance from Earth to the Sun.
