About these units

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.

Petanewtons

A petanewton (PT) is equal to 1015 newtons. It’s an extremely large unit of force, mostly theoretical, used in astrophysics or high-energy physics to describe forces acting at a massive scale, such as between planets or in star formation.
