⚡ Nanometers to Astronomical Units: the quick answer

1 nm = 6.68459 × 10⁻²¹ AU 1 nanometer equals 6.68459 × 10⁻²¹ astronomical units

To convert nanometers to astronomical units, multiply the value by 6.68459 × 10⁻²¹. To go the other way, multiply astronomical units by 1.49598 × 10²⁰ to get nanometers.

↔ Convert astronomical units to nanometers instead

🧮 Formula

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

Where

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