About this conversion

The light-year (ly) is a unit of length in the astronomical, commonly used for distances to nearby stars and sizes of galaxies. The nautical mile (nmi) belongs to the nautical / aviation and is typically found in measurements related to maritime navigation and aviation route planning. By definition, one light-year is the distance light travels in one Julian year in a vacuum, approximately 9.461 × 10¹⁵ meters. One nautical mile is exactly 1,852 meters, corresponding to one minute of arc of latitude. The conversion factor between these two units is 5108369330453.563: multiplying any value in ly by this number gives the equivalent in nmi. For example, 10 ly equals 51083693304535.6328 nmi. Going the other direction, 1 nmi equals 0 ly.
