gigaparsec to kiloparsec
Please provide values below to convert gigaparsec [Gpc] to kiloparsec [kpc], or change ↔.
gigaparsec [Gpc]
Definition: A unit of distance used in cosmology, equal to 1,000 megaparsecs, or about 3.26 billion light years.
Historyandorigin: The gigaparsec is used for describing the most vast distances in the observable universe.
CurrentUse: Applied in measuring the distance to the farthest known galaxies and the scale of the universe.
funfact: Distances to the most distant galaxies can be measured in gigaparsecs!
kiloparsec [kpc]
Definition: A unit of distance used in astronomy, equal to 1,000 parsecs or about 3,260 light years.
Historyandorigin: The kiloparsec is a standard distance unit used in measuring the scale of the Milky Way and other galaxies.
CurrentUse: Used to measure the size of galaxies and the distances between them.
funfact: Kiloparsecs are used to describe galactic structures like the Milky Way's spiral arms!

How to Convert gigaparsec to kiloparsec
1 gigaparsec [Gpc] = 1000000 kiloparsec [kpc]
1 kiloparsec [kpc] = 0.000001 gigaparsec [Gpc]
we use cross multiplication method
gigaparsec [Gpc] → kiloparsec [kpc]
1 → 1000000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1000000=1*x
by simplifying
x=1500000
