What is a Astronomical Unit?
The Astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of length roughly being the distance from Earth to the Sun, about 150 million kilometers.
What is a Parsec?
The Parsec (pc) is an astronomical unit of length used to measure distances to objects outside the Solar System, equal to about 3.26 light-years.
How to Convert Astronomical Unit to Parsec
To convert Astronomical Unit to Parsec, divide the Astronomical Unit value by 206263.
pc = AU ÷ 206263Manual Calculation Steps
Step 1: Identify the Formula
The standard formula to convert from Astronomical Unit to Parsec is:
pc = AU ÷ 206263Step 2: Plug in the Value
Substitute the value you want to convert (for example, 5 AU) into the formula.
Step 3: Calculate the Result
Perform the calculation to get the result in Parsec.
