How to convert megaparsecs to nautical miles
1 megaparsec is equal to 1.666132603 × 10¹⁹ nautical miles, and 1 nautical mile (international) is equal to 6.001923244 × 10⁻²⁰ megaparsecs. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
nautical miles = megaparsecs × 1.666132603 × 10¹⁹
nautical miles = megaparsecs ÷ 6.001923244 × 10⁻²⁰Example: convert 1 Mpc to NM: 1 × 1.666132603 × 10¹⁹ = 1.666132603 × 10¹⁹ NM.

About the megaparsec
A megaparsec is one million parsecs (about 3.26 million light-years). It's used for distances between galaxies and in the Hubble constant (km/s/Mpc).
Symbol: Mpc · 1 Mpc = 3.085677581 × 10²² m · Category: Astronomical
About the nautical mile (international)
The international nautical mile is exactly 1,852 m, close to one minute of latitude. It's used in aviation, shipping and for territorial waters, and one knot is one nautical mile per hour.
