Astronomical scale (Moon's orbit = ~0.38 Gm). Useful for space agency data but rarely searched by the public. The Fathom remains vital in maritime navigation, measuring water depth and anchor chains. One fathom equals 6 feet. For reference, recreational scuba divers typically explore depths of 10-20 fathoms (60-120 feet), while the Titanic rests at about 1,200 fathoms (7,200 feet) below sea level.
To convert between Gigameter (Gm) and Fathom (ftm), use the following formulas:
1 Gigameter (Gm) = 546806649.1688539 Fathom (ftm)
1 Fathom (ftm) = 1.8288e-9 Gigameter (Gm)
0.15 Gm = 0.15 * 546806649.1688539 ftm = 82020997.37532808 ftm
1.5 Gm = 1.5 * 546806649.1688539 ftm = 820209973.7532809 ftm
4 Gm = 4 * 546806649.1688539 ftm = 2187226596.6754155 ftm
