Earth's polar radius

The Earth's polar radius is the distance from the Earth's center to the poles. One Earth's polar radius is approximately 6,356.8 kilometers or about 3,949.9 miles.

The polar radius is shorter than the equatorial radius due to the Earth's oblate spheroid shape, which results from its rotation causing a bulge at the equator and a flattening at the poles.

The Earth's polar radius is used in geodesy, cartography, and satellite navigation to accurately describe the Earth's shape and dimensions. It is essential for understanding Earth's gravitational field, polar regions, and measurements related to the planet's overall geometry.

Kiloparsecs

A kiloparsec (kpc) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure astronomical distances. One kiloparsec is equivalent to 3,262 light-years or approximately 3.086 × 10^16 meters.

The kiloparsec is defined as one thousand parsecs, where one parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.

Kiloparsecs are used to measure large distances between celestial objects, such as the size of galaxies or the distance between galactic structures. They provide a convenient scale for expressing vast distances in the universe.
