What is a Light Year?

The Light-year (ly) is a unit of length used to express astronomical distances. It is equivalent to about 9.46 trillion kilometers, the distance light travels in one year.

What is a Earth Radius?

The Earth Radius (R⊕) is a unit of distance used in astronomy and geophysics, denoting the average radius of the Earth (approx 6,371 km).

How to Convert Light Year to Earth Radius

To convert Light Year to Earth Radius, multiply the Light Year value by 1485010000.

R⊕ = ly × 1485010000
