Gigameters

Definition: A gigameter (Gm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10⁹ meters, used in astronomy and planetary science.

History: Gigameters are useful for measuring distances within the solar system, such as the distance between Earth and the Moon or between planets. While not commonly used in everyday measurements, they are important in scientific contexts.

Hectometers

Definition: A hectometer (hm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 100 meters.

History: The hectometer was introduced as part of the metric system in the late 18th century, but it is rarely used in common measurements. It finds occasional use in land measurements, such as defining agricultural fields.
