Length is the measure of distance in one dimension—the extent of an object from one end to the other, or the distance between two points. The SI base unit is themeter (m), defined since 1983 as the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second. Common derived units include the kilometer (1 km = 1,000 m) for distances and the centimeter (cm) and millimeter (mm) for everyday measurements. US customary length units include the inch (in), foot (ft), yard (yd), and mile (mi). The nautical mile (1,852 m) is used in aviation and maritime navigation.

An inch (in) is a unit of length in the imperial measurement system, equal to 1/12 of a foot or 2.54 centimeters. The inch is standard in the United States, parts of Canada, the United Kingdom, and various industries worldwide for measuring distances, dimensions, and sizes of physical objects. Engineers, architects, construction workers, and manufacturers use inches for blueprints, specifications, and measurements of tools and building materials. The inch appears on tape measures, machined parts, electronic components, and countless everyday items. Despite the global adoption of the metric system, the inch remains deeply embedded in American industry, aviation, and maritime applications, requiring conversions between inches and metric units for international work.

Lunar distance (symbol: LD) is a unit of length equal to the average distance between the Earth and the Moon, defined as exactly 384,399 kilometers. One lunar distance is also equal to approximately 238,855 miles or 0.00257 astronomical unit. The lunar distance is commonly used in astronomy, space science, and media reporting to describe the distance of the Moon from Earth and the closest approach of asteroids, comets, and spacecraft. It provides an intuitive way to compare distances within the Earth–Moon system and near-Earth space.
