The nanometer is a unit of length equal to one-billionth of a meter (0.000000001 m). It's commonly used in scientific research, particularly in fields such as physics, chemistry, and biology, where extremely small scales are relevant.
A light year (ly) is a unit of length used in astronomy, representing the distance that light travels in one year through a vacuum, approximately 9.461 trillion kilometers (about 5.879 trillion miles).
