How to Convert Parsecs to Kilometers

To convert parsecs to kilometers, multiply the value by 3.0857e+13.

Kilometers = Parsecs × 3.0857e+13

1 parsec = 3.0857e+13 kilometers

Tip: To convert kilometers back to parsecs, divide by 3.0857e+13.

Example 1: 1 pc = 3.0857e+13 km
1 × 3.0857e+13 = 3.0857e+13

Example 2: 5 pc = 1.5428e+14 km
5 × 3.0857e+13 = 1.5428e+14

Example 3: 10 pc = 3.0857e+14 km
10 × 3.0857e+13 = 3.0857e+14
