Convert gigameter to exameter
Enter a value below to convert gigameter [Gm] to exameter [Em]. Reverse conversion: Convert exameter to gigameter.
1 Gm = 1e-09 Em. To convert gigameter to exameter, multiply the value by 1e-09; to go the other way, divide by it (1 Em = 1000000000 Gm). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Gigameter to Exameter: Quick Reference
- 1 Gm = 1e-09 Em

Gigameter: Definition and Use
A gigameter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^9 meters.
History/Origin
The prefix "giga-" for 10^9 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1960.
Current Use
The gigameter is used for measuring interplanetary distances, for example, the distance between Earth and Mars.
Exameter: Definition and Use
An exameter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^18 meters.
History/Origin
The prefix "exa-" for 10^18 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1975.
Current Use
The exameter is used in astronomy to measure the vast distances between galaxies.
