How to Convert Fermi to Megaparsec
1 F, f = 3.24077928966636e-38 Mpc
Example: convert 15 F, f to Mpc:
15 F, f = 15 × 3.24077928966636e-38 Mpc = 4.86116893449954e-37 Mpc
Fermi to Megaparsec Conversion Table

Fermi
A fermi is a unit of length equal to a femtometer, which is 10⁻¹⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The fermi is named after the Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi. It was a popular unit in nuclear physics.
Current Use
The femtometer is the officially recognized SI unit, but the fermi is still used informally in nuclear and particle physics.
Megaparsec
A megaparsec is a unit of distance used in astronomy, equal to one million parsecs.
History/Origin
The parsec was first coined by British astronomer Herbert Hall Turner in 1913. The megaparsec came into use as astronomical distance measurements extended to other galaxies.
Current Use
The megaparsec is used to measure the distances between neighboring galaxies and galaxy clusters.
