Calculation Info

The Foot To Astronomical Unit (Ft To Au) Converter is a simple tool designed to help you convert measurements from feet into astronomical units. This can be useful for understanding the scale of objects in space relative to familiar measurements on Earth.

A foot (ft) is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and other countries that follow the imperial measurement system. One foot is equal to 12 inches, and approximately 0.3048 meters in the metric system.

An astronomical unit (AU) is a standard unit of measurement used in astronomy to describe distances within our solar system. One AU is approximately equal to the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, which is about 149,597,870.7 kilometers or roughly 92,955,807.3 miles.

To convert feet to astronomical units, you can use the following formula:
AU = feet / 49,212,670

This formula is based on the fact that 1 AU equals approximately 49,212,670 feet. Simply input the number of feet you want to convert, and the tool will calculate the equivalent distance in astronomical units for you.
