Megameters

A megameter (Mm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One megameter is equivalent to 1,000,000 meters or approximately 621.371 miles.

The megameter is defined as one million meters, providing a measurement for very large distances, such as those encountered in planetary and astronomical contexts.

Megameters are used in fields such as astronomy and planetary science to describe distances on a scale larger than kilometers but smaller than astronomical units.

Earth's equatorial radius

The Earth's equatorial radius is the distance from the Earth's center to the equator. One Earth's equatorial radius is approximately 6,378.1 kilometers or about 3,963.2 miles.

The equatorial radius is the longest radius of the Earth due to its equatorial bulge, caused by the planet's rotation. This bulge results in a slightly larger radius at the equator compared to the polar radius.

The Earth's equatorial radius is used in geodesy, cartography, and satellite navigation to define the Earth's shape and for accurate measurements of distances and areas on the Earth's surface. It provides a key parameter for understanding Earth's dimensions and its gravitational field.
