Parsec: Definition and Use
A parsec is a unit of length used to measure the large distances to astronomical objects outside the Solar System, approximately equal to 3.26 light-years. It is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
History/Origin
The term "parsec" is a portmanteau of "parallax" and "second," coined by British astronomer Herbert Hall Turner in 1913.
Current Use
The parsec is the preferred unit of distance in astronomy and astrophysics for expressing the distances to stars and galaxies.
League: Definition and Use
A league is a unit of length that was common in Europe and Latin America, but is no longer an official unit in any nation. It was the distance a person could walk in an hour.
History/Origin
The league varied in length from country to country and even within the same country over time. The most common definition was three miles.
Current Use
The league is no longer in common use but is found in historical texts and literature.
