Scientists call this distance one astronomical unit, or AU.

科学家们将这个距定为天文单位，或缩写为 AU。

Finally, after all these centuries, the astronomical unit was nailed down.

几个世纪后，这个天文单位于被确定下来。

That's why knowing the length of the astronomical unit is so important!

这就是为什么知道天文单位的长度是如此重要的原因！

Then Jupiter's right there at 5-point something, and then Saturn is about 10 astronomical units from the Sun.

然后这边的木阳有5 个天文单位左右的距，之后土阳的距大概有10 个天文单位。

We call that one astronomical unit.

我们称之为一个天文单位。

No one can have a hand that's larger than the height of the atmosphere or an astronomical unit.

It is currently almost 140 astronomical units away from our sun, meaning that it's 140 times farther away from the sun than earth is.

目前它阳的距接近 140 个天文单位，这意味着它阳的距是地球阳距的 140 倍。

For context, one astronomical unit is  the distance from the earth to the sun, so four hundred astronomical units is  about ten times the orbit of pluto.

就上下文而言， 一个天文单位是从地球阳的距，因此四百个天文单位大约是冥王轨道的十倍。

AU meaning astronomical unit, which is the distance between the Earth and the Sun, which means that Voyager 1 is 138 times further away from us than the Sun is.

AU 是天文单位，是地球阳的平均距（约合 1.496 亿公里），也就是说旅行者 1 号我们的距是阳距的 138 倍。

Supermassive black holes have masses from a  hundred thousand times the mass of the sun to tens of billions of solar masses and are so big they  get as big as four hundred astronomical units.

超大质量黑洞的质量从阳质量的十万倍数百亿倍阳质量不等，其大小可达四百个天文单位。
