This calculator allows you to convert from Furlong to Parsec and in a reverse direction. To convert from Furlong to Parsec, enter the amount of Furlong into the first input and to convert from Parsec to Furlong, enter the amount of Parsec into the second input.
1 Furlong = 6.5194108814361E-15 Parsec
To convert Furlong to Parsec: Every 1 Furlong equals 6.5194108814361E-15 Parsec. For example, 100 Furlong equal 100 * 6.5194108814361E-15 = 6.5194108814361E-13 Parsec and so on..

A furlong is a measure of distance which equals one eighth of a mile. A good note is that furlong is used in both imperial and U.S. customary systems of measurement.
One furlong equals to 660 feet.
Historically, furlong was estimated be be equivalent to the roman stadium. It was also based on the length of an average plowed furrow .
What is "parsec"?
In the space scale, distances can't be expressed by meters or feet. Professional astronomers use the parsec unit to express these incredible distances. The parsec is a unit for expressing distances between stars and galaxies. One parsec equals 3.26 light-years, which is equivalent to 3.09 × 1013 km.
Parsec has a special way to measure distance, it depends on trigonometry. It is defined as the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
The parsec distance of an object is the reciprocal of its parallax in seconds of arc.
It is amazing to know that when we look at the night sky, we can see stars which are nearly a distance of 500 parsecs of the Sun.
There is a star is called Proxima Centauri. It exists within another solar system called Alpha Centauri triple-star system. It has a parallax of 0.769 second of arc which means it is 1.30 parsec far from us.
