    However, 1 and 15 are not within an order of magnitude, since their ratio is 15/1 = 15 > 10. The reciprocal ratio, 1/15, is less than 0.1, so the same result is obtained. Differences in order of magnitude can be measured on a base-10 logarithmic scale in " decades " (i.e., factors of ten). [ 2 ]

    The exametre (SI symbol: Em) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 18 meters. To help compare different distances this section lists lengths between 10 18 m (1 Em or 105.7 light-years) and 10 19 m (10 Em or 1,057 light-years). 1.2 Em – 129 light-years – diameter of Messier 13 (a typical globular cluster)

    The "ago" is implied, so that any such year number "X Ma" between 66 and 145 is "Cretaceous", for good reason. But the counter argument is that having myr for a duration and Mya for an age mixes unit systems, and tempts capitalization errors: "million" need not be capitalized, but "mega" must be; "ma" would technically imply a milliyear (a ...
