Common Length Conversions Metric Length Conversions Unit Definition (spat) The spat is an informal unit of distance formerly used by astronomers. The spat is equal to the terameter (Tm, or 10E12 meters). This is equivalent to about 6.6846 astronomical units. The origin of this usage is not clear; "spat" may be an acronym for "space unit" or "space-time". Unit Definition (braccio [Italy]) The Braccio is a traditional Italian measurement of length. The word means "arm", and a Braccio is approximately equal to the length of a man's arm, about 27 or 28 inches (68-71 centimeters). In modern times, the Braccio has become an informal metric unit of exactly 70 centimeters (about 27.56 inches), which is the same as the Arm Length unit.
