To convert US survey chains to light years, multiply the value by 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁵. To go the other way, multiply light years by 470,289,089,360,670 to get US survey chains.
| US Survey Chains (chUS) | Light Years (ly) |
|---|---|
| 1 chUS | 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁵ ly |
| 5 chUS | 1.06318 × 10⁻¹⁴ ly |
| 10 chUS | 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁴ ly |
| 25 chUS | 5.31588 × 10⁻¹⁴ ly |
| 50 chUS | 1.06318 × 10⁻¹³ ly |
| 100 chUS | 2.12635 × 10⁻¹³ ly |
| 250 chUS | 5.31588 × 10⁻¹³ ly |
| 500 chUS | 1.06318 × 10⁻¹² ly |
| 1,000 chUS | 2.12635 × 10⁻¹² ly |
| 2,500 chUS | 5.31588 × 10⁻¹² ly |
| 5,000 chUS | 1.06318 × 10⁻¹¹ ly |
| 10,000 chUS | 2.12635 × 10⁻¹¹ ly |
| 100,000 chUS | 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁰ ly |
| 1,000,000 chUS | 2.12635 × 10⁻⁹ ly |
25 chUS × 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁵ = 5.31588 × 10⁻¹⁴ ly
Try this example →250 chUS × 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁵ = 5.31588 × 10⁻¹³ ly
Try this example →US survey chain (chUS). The US survey chain is 66 US survey feet, about 20.1168 m.
Light year (ly). A light year is the distance light travels in one year, about 9.46 trillion kilometers.
There are 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁵ light years in one US survey chain.
Multiply the number of US survey chains by 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁵. For example, 10 US survey chains equal 2.12635 × 10⁻¹⁴ light years.
One light year equals 470,289,089,360,670 US survey chains.
2.12635 × 10⁻¹² light years. Other common values: 100 US survey chains = 2.12635 × 10⁻¹³ light years and 10,000 US survey chains = 2.12635 × 10⁻¹¹ light years.
