How to convert petameters to parsecs
1 petameter is equal to 0.03240779289 parsecs, and 1 parsec is equal to 30.85677581 petameters. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
parsecs = petameters × 0.03240779289
parsecs = petameters ÷ 30.85677581Example: convert 15 Pm to pc: 15 × 0.03240779289 = 0.4861168934 pc.

About the petameter
A petameter is 10¹⁵ meters, roughly a tenth of a light-year.
Symbol: Pm · 1 Pm = 1 × 10¹⁵ m · Category: Metric (SI)
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.
