About this conversion
The astronomical unit (au) is a unit of length in the astronomical, commonly used for distances between planets and orbital radius of planets. The nanometer (nm) belongs to the metric (SI) and is typically found in measurements related to visible light wavelengths (400–700 nm) and chip transistor node sizes. By definition, one astronomical unit is approximately 149,597,870.7 km — the mean distance from Earth to the Sun. One nanometer is one billionth of a meter (10⁻⁹ m). The conversion factor between these two units is 149597870700000000000: multiplying any value in au by this number gives the equivalent in nm. For example, 10 au equals 1.4959787069999997e+21 nm. Going the other direction, 1 nm equals 0 au.
