How to convert light years to terameters
1 light year is equal to 9,460.730473 terameters, and 1 terameter is equal to 0.0001057000834 light years. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
terameters = light years × 9,460.730473
terameters = light years ÷ 0.0001057000834Example: convert 15 ly to Tm: 15 × 9,460.730473 = 141,910.9571 Tm.

About the light year
A light-year is the distance light travels in a vacuum in one Julian year (365.25 days): about 9.46 trillion km. The nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, is about 4.37 light-years away.
