About Square Megameters
A square megameter (Mm²) equals the area of a square with sides of one million meters - 10¹² m², or one trillion square meters. At this scale we describe major geographic and planetary regions. The entire land surface of Earth is about 149 Mm², the Indian Ocean covers roughly 70 Mm², and the Sahara Desert spans approximately 9.2 Mm². Square megameters provide a convenient scale for comparing continent-sized areas without resorting to hundreds of millions of square kilometers.
About Square Thou
A square thou (thou²), sometimes called a square mil, is the area of a square with sides of one thousandth of an inch (0.0254 mm), equal to approximately 6.452 × 10⁻¹⁰ m². This tiny imperial unit is indispensable in precision engineering, PCB (printed circuit board) design, and manufacturing, where conductor widths, dielectric coating thicknesses, and tight machining tolerances are specified in thou. Wire insulation, thin films, and precision-stamped metal components are commonly described using this unit.
