Nanometer (nm). A nanometer is one billionth of a meter, used for wavelengths of light and the size of molecules.
Light year (ly). A light year is the distance light travels in one year, about 9.46 trillion kilometers.
There are 1.057 × 10⁻²⁵ light years in one nanometer.
Multiply the number of nanometers by 1.057 × 10⁻²⁵. For example, 10 nanometers equal 1.057 × 10⁻²⁴ light years.
One light year equals 9.46073 × 10²⁴ nanometers.
1.057 × 10⁻²² light years. Other common values: 100 nanometers = 1.057 × 10⁻²³ light years and 10,000 nanometers = 1.057 × 10⁻²¹ light years.
