This calculator allows you to convert from Parsec to Centimeter and in a reverse direction. To convert from Parsec to Centimeter, enter the amount of Parsec into the first input and to convert from Centimeter to Parsec, enter the amount of Centimeter into the second input.
1 Parsec = 3.08567758128E+18 Centimeter
To convert Parsec to Centimeter: Every 1 Parsec equals 3.08567758128E+18 Centimeter. For example, 100 Parsec equal 100 * 3.08567758128E+18 = 3.08567758128E+20 Centimeter and so on..

In the space scale, distances can't be expressed by meters or feet. Professional astronomers use the parsec unit to express these incredible distances. The parsec is a unit for expressing distances between stars and galaxies. One parsec equals 3.26 light-years, which is equivalent to 3.09 × 1013 km.
Parsec has a special way to measure distance, it depends on trigonometry. It is defined as the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
The parsec distance of an object is the reciprocal of its parallax in seconds of arc.
It is amazing to know that when we look at the night sky, we can see stars which are nearly a distance of 500 parsecs of the Sun.
There is a star is called Proxima Centauri. It exists within another solar system called Alpha Centauri triple-star system. It has a parallax of 0.769 second of arc which means it is 1.30 parsec far from us.
All of us use rulers everyday. Rulers are digitized in centimeters, but what is the centimeter?
Centimeter is a metric unit which is used mostly to measure small distances. Centimeter can be abbreviated as "CM." One inch consists of 2.54 centimeters.
There is a french origion for the word "centimeter". It came from 2 Latin words, "centum" and " mètre".
