AU to Miles Calculator

Convert AU to Miles

Formula

The formula to convert astronomical units (AU) to miles is:

\[ M = AU \cdot CF \]

Where:

Example

Let's say the distance is 2 AU. The distance in miles would be calculated as follows:

\[ M = 2 \cdot 92955807.3 = 185911614.6 \text{ miles} \]

So, the distance is approximately 185,911,614.6 miles.

What is an Astronomical Unit?

An astronomical unit (AU) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure distances within our solar system. It is approximately equal to the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, which is about 92,955,807.3 miles. The astronomical unit provides a convenient way to express and relate distances of celestial objects in a manner that is easier to comprehend than using miles or kilometers.
