Convert megaparsec to kiloyard
Enter a value below to convert megaparsec [Mpc] to kiloyard [kyd]. Reverse conversion: Convert kiloyard to megaparsec.
1 Mpc = 3.3745e+19 kyd. To convert megaparsec to kiloyard, multiply the value by 3.3745e+19; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kyd = 2.9634e-20 Mpc). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Megaparsec: Definition and Use
A megaparsec is a unit of distance used in astronomy, equal to one million parsecs.
History/Origin
The parsec was first coined by British astronomer Herbert Hall Turner in 1913. The megaparsec came into use as astronomical distance measurements extended to other galaxies.
Current Use
The megaparsec is used to measure the distances between neighboring galaxies and galaxy clusters.
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.
