About these units
Giganewtons
A giganewton (GN) is 109 newtons. It’s used to describe extremely large forces, such as the thrust produced by spacecraft or the force involved in geological phenomena like earthquakes. Giganewtons help put into perspective the vast power involved in significant natural or artificial forces.
Micronewtons
A micronewton (µN) is equal to one-millionth of a newton. This unit is useful in contexts like aerospace and nanoengineering, where extremely small forces come into play, such as measuring the thrust of small satellite propulsion systems.
