This converter allows you to convert nautical miles [NM] to astronomical units [au] or astronomical units [au] to nautical miles [NM]. 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 nautical mile [NM] ≈ 1.238 * 10-8 astronomical units [au]1 astronomical unit [au] ≈ 80,776,388.067 nautical miles [NM]

Convert nautical miles to astronomical units

There are two simple ways to convert nautical miles [NM] to astronomical units [au]. In the first calculation method, the value in nautical miles [NM] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 80,776,388.067. The second method multiplies the value in nautical miles [NM] by the rounded conversion factor of 1.238 * 10-8.

  • Astronomical units [au] ≈ nautical miles [NM] ÷ 80,776,388.067
  • Astronomical units [au] ≈ nautical miles [NM] * 1.238 * 10-8

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

  • Astronomical units [au] = nautical miles [NM] ÷ 23.367 ÷ 64,021 * 1,852 ÷ 105

Convert astronomical units to nautical miles

Converting astronomical units [au] to nautical miles [NM] is easy and can be done in two ways. The first method involves multiplication, in which the value in astronomical units [au] is multiplied by the rounded conversion factor of 80,776,388.067. The second variant is a division. Here, the value in astronomical units [au] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 1.238 * 10-8.

  • Nautical miles [NM] ≈ astronomical units [au] * 80,776,388.067
  • Nautical miles [NM] ≈ astronomical units [au] ÷ (1.238 * 10-8)

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

  • Nautical miles [NM] = astronomical units [au] * 23.367 * 64,021 ÷ 1,852 * 105
