Convert kiloyard to kiloparsec
Enter a value below to convert kiloyard [kyd] to kiloparsec [kpc]. Reverse conversion: Convert kiloparsec to kiloyard.
1 kyd = 2.9634e-17 kpc. To convert kiloyard to kiloparsec, multiply the value by 2.9634e-17; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kpc = 3.3745e+16 kyd). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Kiloyard: Definition and Use
A kiloyard is a unit of length equal to 1,000 yards.
History/Origin
The kiloyard is not a standard or common unit of measurement. It is a logical multiple of the yard.
Current Use
The kiloyard is rarely used.
Kiloparsec: Definition and Use
A kiloparsec is a unit of distance used in astronomy, equal to one thousand parsecs.
History/Origin
The parsec was first proposed as a unit of distance in 1913 by British astronomer Herbert Hall Turner. The kiloparsec is a multiple of the parsec used for larger astronomical distances.
Current Use
The kiloparsec is used to measure distances to objects within and around the Milky Way galaxy.
