  2. Pound per square inch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_per_square_inch

    The conversion in SI units is 1 ksi = 6.895 MPa, or 1 MPa = 0.145 ksi. The megapound per square inch (Mpsi) is another multiple equal to a million psi. It is used in mechanics for the elastic modulus of materials, especially for metals. [5] The conversion in SI units is 1 Mpsi = 6.895 GPa, or 1 GPa = 0.145 Mpsi.

    The jumping height is limited by the EVA space suit's weight on the Moon of about 13.6 kg (30 lb) and by the suit's pressurization resisting the bending of the suit, as needed for jumping. [81] [82] On average the Moon's surface gravity is 1.62 m/s 2 [4] (0.1654 g; 5.318 ft/s 2), about half of the surface gravity of Mars and about a sixth of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit_sizes

    Metric drill set, 1.0–6.0 mm by 0.1 mm, jobber length. The case that holds them in an indexed order (by size), via a graduated series of holes, is called a drill index. Metric drill bit sizes define the diameter of the bit in terms of standard metric lengths. Standards organizations define sets of sizes that are conventionally manufactured ...

    Additionally, astronomers have found 6 white dwarfs (stars that have exhausted all fusible hydrogen), 21 brown dwarfs, as well as 1 sub-brown dwarf, WISE 0855−0714 (possibly a rogue planet). The closest system is Alpha Centauri , with Proxima Centauri as the closest star in that system, at 4.2465 light-years from Earth.

    It is the only independent state in the world that lies entirely above 1,000 metres (3,281 ft) in elevation. Its lowest point of 1,400 metres (4,593 ft) is thus the highest lowest point of any country in the world. Over 80% of the country lies above 1,800 metres (5,906 ft). Lesotho is the southernmost landlocked country in the world.
