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. Astronomical scale (Moon's orbit = ~0.38 Gm). Useful for space agency data but rarely searched by the public.
To convert between Fathom (ftm) and Gigameter (Gm), use the following formulas:
1 Fathom (ftm) = 1.8288e-9 Gigameter (Gm)
1 Gigameter (Gm) = 546806649.1688539 Fathom (ftm)
1 ftm = 1 * 1.8288e-9 Gm = 1.8288e-9 Gm
5 ftm = 5 * 1.8288e-9 Gm = 9.143999999999999e-9 Gm
10 ftm = 10 * 1.8288e-9 Gm = 1.8287999999999998e-8 Gm
20 ftm = 20 * 1.8288e-9 Gm = 3.6575999999999996e-8 Gm
50 ftm = 50 * 1.8288e-9 Gm = 9.143999999999999e-8 Gm
100 ftm = 100 * 1.8288e-9 Gm = 1.8287999999999998e-7 Gm
