  2. Minute and second of arc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_and_second_of_arc

    True represent­ation of the sizes is achieved when the image is viewed at a distance of 103 times the width of the "Moon: max." circle. For example, if the "Moon: max." circle is 10 cm wide on a computer display, viewing it from 10.3 m (11.3 yards) away will show true representation of the sizes.

  3. Angular diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_diameter

    60 arc-minutes (′) in one degree; 60 arc-seconds (″) in one arc-minute; To put this in perspective, the full Moon as viewed from Earth is about 1 ⁄ 2 °, or 30 ′ (or 1800″). The Moon's motion across the sky can be measured in angular size: approximately 15° every hour, or 15″ per second.

    Angular resolution (arc seconds) Wavelength Type Site Year Global mm-VLBI Array (successor to the Coordinated Millimeter VLBI Array) 0.000012 (12 μas) radio (at 1.3 cm) very long baseline interferometry array of different radio telescopes: a range of locations on Earth and in space [8] 2002 - Very Large Telescope/PIONIER: 0.001 (1 mas)

  5. Parsec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsec

    The parsec (symbol: pc) is a unit of length used to measure the large distances to astronomical objects outside the Solar System, approximately equal to 3.26 light-years or 206,265 astronomical units (AU), i.e. 30.9 trillion kilometres (19.2 trillion miles).

  6. Visual acuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_acuity

    The maximum angular resolution of the human eye is 28 arc seconds or 0.47 arc minutes; [23] this gives an angular resolution of 0.008 degrees, and at a distance of 1 km corresponds to 136 mm. This is equal to 0.94 arc minutes per line pair (one white and one black line), or 0.016 degrees.

  8. Visual angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_angle

    If one looks at a one-centimeter object at a distance of one meter and a two-centimeter object at a distance of two meters, both subtend the same visual angle of about 0.01 rad or 0.57°. Thus they have the same retinal image size R ≈ 0.17 mm {\displaystyle R\approx 0.17{\text{ mm}}} .
