Basilicus Weights and Measures is an original system of weights and measures not rooted in Earth-native concepts for use in Science Fiction or other settings having no relationship with Earth or human civilization. Although many settings, worlds, and civilization will likely have their own specific system for measurements this one can be used when no system is in place.
Articles in Basilicus projects should use this system to keep terms standardized.

[edit] Standard Distance Units
Standard Distance Units are neutral units used to measure astronomical distances. An SDU is one googol times the longest wavelength that will cause a single photon to become a black hole.
[edit] Earth Conversion
- 1 SDU = 1.6162E+65 meters
- 1 SDU = 1.6162E+62 kilometers
- 1 SDU = 1.004260120894E+62 miles
- 1 SDU = 1.7674978127734E+65 yards
- 1 SDU = 1.7083612369897E+49 light years
[edit] Reverse Earth Conversion
- 1 Meter = 6.1873530503651E-66 SDU
- 1 Kilometer = 6.1873530503651E-63 SDU
- 1 Mile = 9.9575795074867E-63 SDU
- 1 Yard = 5.6577156292538E-66 SDU
- 1 Light Year = 5.8535629253805E-50 SDU
[edit] Minor Distance Units
Minor Distance Units are neutral units used to measure average terrestrial distances. An MDU is ten decillion (1034) times the longest wavelength that will cause a single photon to become a black hole.
[edit] Earth Conversion
- 1 MDU = 0.16162 meters
- 1 MDU = 0.00016162 kilometers
- 1 MDU = 0.0001004260120894 miles
- 1 MDU = 0.17674978127734 yards
- 1 MDU = 1.7083612369897E-17 light years
[edit] Reverse Earth Conversion
- 1 Meter = 6.1873530503651 MDU
- 1 Kilometer = 6187.3530503651 MDU
- 1 Mile = 9957.5795074867 MDU
- 1 Yard = 5.6577156292538 MDU
- 1 Light Year = 58535629253805000 MDU
[edit] Standard Time Units
Standard Time Units are neutral units used to measure time. An STU is one quattuordecillion (the power of 45) of the time it takes for a photon to cross a SDU^-100 when going the speed of light.
[edit] Earth Conversion
- 1 STU = 53.91 seconds
- 1 STU = 0.8985 minutes
- 1 STU = 0.014975 hours
[edit] Reverse Earth Conversion
- 1 Second = 0.018549434242256 STU
- 1 Minute = 1.1129660545353 STU
- 1 Hour = 66.77796327212 STU
[edit] Standard Mass Units
Standard Mass Units are neutral units used to measure mass. An SMU is one hundred million (108) times the mass of a photon when its wavelength will cause it to become a black hole.
[edit] Earth Conversion
- 1 SMU = 2.176 kilograms
- 1 SMU = 2176 grams
- 1 SMU = 4.7972588251429 pounds (on Earth)
[edit] Reverse Earth Conversion
- 1 Kilogram = 0.45955882352941 SMU
- 1 Gram = 0.00045955882352941 SMU
- 1 Pound (on Earth) = 0.20845237591912 SMU
[edit] Standard Temperature Units
Standard Temperature Units are neutral units used to measure temperature. An STE is a decillionth (10-39) of the temperature of a molecule with 1 SMU of heat energy.
[edit] Earth Conversion
- 0 STE = 0 Kelvin
- 1 STE = 14.17 Kelvin
- 0 STE = -273.15 Celsius
- 1 STE = -258.98 Celsius
- 0 STE = -459.67 Fahrenheit
- 1 STE = -459.35511111111 Fahrenheit
[edit] Reverse Earth Conversion
- 0 Kelvin = Template:Convert/to STE
- 1 Kelvin = Template:Convert/to STE
- 0 Celsius = Template:Convert STE
- 1 Celsius = Template:Convert STE
- 0 Fahrenheit = Template:Convert STE
- 1 Fahrenheit = Template:Convert STE
