1000 kilometers is equivalent to 0.0000 light-years. This is because a light-year is an incredibly vast distance, and 1000 kilometers is extremely small in comparison.

A light-year is about 9.46 trillion kilometers. Therefore, 1000 kilometers is a tiny fraction of a single light-year, making the conversion value practically zero.

While not directly used for precise astronomical measurements (as distances are much larger), converting 1000 km to light-years helps illustrate the immense scale of space and the concept of a light-year.

A light-year is used to measure astronomical distances, specifically the distance that light travels in one Earth year. It helps us comprehend the vastness of space between stars and galaxies.
