25 NM × 1.23799 × 10⁻⁸ = 3.09496 × 10⁻⁷ AU
Try this example →250 NM × 1.23799 × 10⁻⁸ = 3.09496 × 10⁻⁶ AU
Try this example →Nautical mile (NM). A nautical mile is exactly 1,852 meters, based on one minute of latitude, and is used in shipping and aviation.
Astronomical unit (AU). An astronomical unit is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, about 149.6 million kilometers.
There are 1.23799 × 10⁻⁸ astronomical units in one nautical mile.
Multiply the number of nautical miles by 1.23799 × 10⁻⁸. For example, 10 nautical miles equal 1.23799 × 10⁻⁷ astronomical units.
One astronomical unit equals 80,776,400 nautical miles.
1.23799 × 10⁻⁵ astronomical units. Other common values: 100 nautical miles = 1.23799 × 10⁻⁶ astronomical units and 10,000 nautical miles = 0.000123799 astronomical units.
