↔ Convert nanometers to astronomical units instead

🧮 Formula

Astronomical Units to Nanometers
nm = AU × 1.49598 × 10²⁰
Nanometers to Astronomical Units
AU = nm × 6.68459 × 10⁻²¹

Where

  • AU = the length in astronomical units
  • nm = the length in nanometers
Every unit here is defined by its length in meters, so the conversion factor is (meters per astronomical unit) ÷ (meters per nanometer).
