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 yard (yd) belongs to the imperial / US customary and is typically found in measurements related to American football field dimensions and fabric and textile sales. By definition, one light-year is the distance light travels in one Julian year in a vacuum, approximately 9.461 × 10¹⁵ meters. One yard is exactly 3 feet, or 0.9144 meters. The conversion factor between these two units is 10346347331583552: multiplying any value in ly by this number gives the equivalent in yd. For example, 10 ly equals 103463473315835520.0000 yd. Going the other direction, 1 yd equals 0 ly.
