This converter allows you to convert astronomical units [au] to gigaparsecs [Gpc] or gigaparsecs [Gpc] to astronomical units [au]. Calculations are performed in both directions. The calculation result and the entered value are displayed with up to 20 decimal places for maximum accuracy.

1 astronomical unit [au] ≈ 4.848 * 10-15 gigaparsecs [Gpc]1 gigaparsec [Gpc] ≈ 2.063 * 1014 astronomical units [au]

Convert astronomical units to gigaparsecs

There are two simple ways to convert astronomical units [au] to gigaparsecs [Gpc]. In the first calculation method, the value in astronomical units [au] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 2.063 * 1014. The second method multiplies the value in astronomical units [au] by the rounded conversion factor of 4.848 * 10-15.

  • Gigaparsecs [Gpc] ≈ astronomical units [au] ÷ (2.063 * 1014)
  • Gigaparsecs [Gpc] ≈ astronomical units [au] * 4.848 * 10-15

However, rounded conversion values are only suitable for rough conversions, as rounding errors can occur in the calculation result. The most accurate conversion of astronomical units [au] to gigaparsecs [Gpc] can be achieved using the following calculation method.

  • Gigaparsecs [Gpc] = astronomical units [au] ÷ 30,857 * 23,367 * 64,021 ÷ 1019

Convert gigaparsecs to astronomical units

Converting gigaparsecs [Gpc] to astronomical units [au] is easy and can be done in two ways. The first method involves multiplication, in which the value in gigaparsecs [Gpc] is multiplied by the rounded conversion factor of 2.063 * 1014. The second variant is a division. Here, the value in gigaparsecs [Gpc] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 4.848 * 10-15.

  • Astronomical units [au] ≈ gigaparsecs [Gpc] * 2.063 * 1014
  • Astronomical units [au] ≈ gigaparsecs [Gpc] ÷ (4.848 * 10-15)

However, rounded conversion values do not allow for exact calculations because rounding errors can occur in the calculation result. The most accurate conversion of gigaparsecs [Gpc] to astronomical units [au] can be achieved using the following calculation method.

  • Astronomical units [au] = gigaparsecs [Gpc] * 30,857 ÷ 23,367 ÷ 64,021 * 1019
