Is a light year 150 million km?

No. 150 million km is the distance from Earth to Sun, and this distance is called an AU (astronomical unit). Light travels this distance in about 8 minutes.A light-year is the distance traveled by light in a year, which of course is much more than the distance traveled in 8 minutes. A light-year is approximately 9.461 x 10 to the power 12 km.


Why do astronauts measure distance in light years?

Actually, "astronauts" usually don't. They measure distances mostly in km. The furthest from Earth any astronaut has ever been is about 400,000 km, which is still a manageable number in km. Astronomers don't either, for the most part; they tend to use either AU (for in-system distances) or parsecs for interstellar distances. When light-years are used, it's generally because the distances involved are too large for km or AU. 1 light year is about 9,500,000,000,000 km, so you can see how much of a difference that makes. 1 light year is only about 63,200 AU, but that still adds up pretty quickly.


How many kilometers is 9 astronomical units?

9 AU = 1,346,380,843 km.9 AU = 1,346,380,843 km.9 AU = 1,346,380,843 km.9 AU = 1,346,380,843 km.


Is a light year is much smaller than an AU?

No, a light year is actually much larger than an astronomical unit (AU). One light year is the distance that light travels in one year, roughly 9.46 trillion kilometers. One AU is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, about 150 million kilometers.


How many astronomical units are in a light hour?
