Unit Definition (gigameter)
The Gigameter (or Gigametre) a metric unit of distance equal to one million kilometers or about 621,371.2 miles. It is seldom used, but this unit would be a good yardstick for the inner Solar System: the distance from the earth to the sun is about 149.60 gigameters.

Unit Definition (angstrom)
The Angstrom is a metric unit of length, equal to 0.1 nanometer or 10e-10 meter. Angstroms are most often used to measure the wavelength of light and are commonly used by chemists and physicists in the field of spectroscopy. One of the pioneers of spectroscopy was the Swedish physicist Anders Jon Ångström (1814-1874), after whom the unit is named.
