"Mly" for a megalight-year (1,000,000 light years)
1 light-year   = 9460730472580800 metres
9.461 trillion kilometres

Light-minute - 17 987 547 480 m  =  17.987.547,480 km
Light-second  one second, and is equal to exactly 299792458 metres
One light-microsecond is about 300 metres
One light-nanosecond is almost 300 millimetres (299.8 mm)
