Unit Definition (petameter)
The petameter is a metric unit of distance equal to 10E12 kilometers. This is equivalent to about 621.371 billion miles or 0.1057 light year. The distance from the earth to the nearest star (other than the sun) is about 40 petameters.

Unit Definition (caliber)
The caliber is a unit used to express the bore diameter of a gun. Traditionally, the diameter is stated in inches, so that ".22 caliber" refers to a pistol having a bore of 0.22 inches (5.588 mm). So the caliber is actually equivalent to the inch. The usage of the term "caliber" is actually now in decline, because bore diameters of many guns are now stated in millimeters. "Caliber" is the American spelling; elsewhere the unit is often spelled "calibre."
