<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Definition ==<br /> <br /> An Astronomical Unit (AU) is approximately the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun and is equal to 149,597,870.691 kilometers <br /> <br /> It is a derived constant and used to indicate distances within the solar system. Its formal definition is the radius of an unperturbed circular orbit a massless body would revolve about the sun in 2*(pi)/k days (i.e., 365.2568983.... days), where k is defined as the Gaussian constant exactly equal to 0.01720209895. Since an AU is based on radius of a circular orbit, one AU is actually slightly less than the average distance between the Earth and the Sun (approximately 150 million km or 93 million miles). <br /> <br /> <br /> All civilian space ships gauge inter-sytem distances in this unit.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> [Source: http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/glossary/au.html]</div>
