How to convert twips to kiloparsecs
1 twip is equal to 5.71637458 × 10⁻²⁵ kiloparsecs, and 1 kiloparsec is equal to 1.749360519 × 10²⁴ twips. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
kiloparsecs = twips × 5.71637458 × 10⁻²⁵
kiloparsecs = twips ÷ 1.749360519 × 10²⁴Example: convert 1 twip to kpc: 1 × 5.71637458 × 10⁻²⁵ = 5.71637458 × 10⁻²⁵ kpc.
