What unit is used to measure between stars?

If I remember all of my astronomy classes correctly, the unit of measurement between Earth and the Sun is 1 A.U., or Astronomical Unit, which is equal to 93 million miles. 1 light year is equal to 5,865,696,000,000 miles (9,460,800,000,000 km). Astronimical Units are used to measure distance within our own galaxy. To measure the distance between stars and galaxies, the unit is called a parsec (PC). 1 PC = 3.26 light years.
