To convert miles to light-years, enter the value in the first field. The result in light-years is calculated automatically using the exact conversion factor.

1 mi ≈ 1.70107795023 × 10^-13 ly
1 ly ≈ 5.87862537318 × 10¹² mi

Formula: ly ≈ mi × 1.70107795023 × 10^-13
mi ≈ ly × 5.87862537318 × 10¹²

Definitions: 1 mi = 5280 ft; 1 ly = 9.4607304725808 × 10¹⁵ m

The mile (mi) is 5,280 feet, or exactly 1,609.344 meters. It is the road-distance unit in the United States and the United Kingdom, where speed limits are posted in miles per hour.

The light-year (ly) is the distance light travels in a vacuum in one Julian year (365.25 days), about 9.46 trillion kilometers. It is used for distances between stars and galaxies; the nearest stars beyond the Sun are roughly 4 light-years away.

See the conversion table with commonly used values, handy for quick reference or study.
