How to convert parsecs to feet (US survey)
1 parsec is equal to 1.012359387 × 10¹⁷ feet (US survey), and 1 foot (us survey) is equal to 9.87791503 × 10⁻¹⁸ parsecs. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
feet (US survey) = parsecs × 1.012359387 × 10¹⁷
feet (US survey) = parsecs ÷ 9.87791503 × 10⁻¹⁸Example: convert 1 pc to ft (US): 1 × 1.012359387 × 10¹⁷ = 1.012359387 × 10¹⁷ ft (US).

About the parsec
A parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond: about 3.26 light-years (3.086 × 10¹⁶ m). Astronomers use it for distances to stars.

About the foot (us survey)
The US survey foot is exactly 1200/3937 m (about 0.3048006 m), two parts per million longer than the international foot. It was officially retired at the end of 2022 but remains in older land records and state plane coordinates.
