(1970)\n\nThe parsec unit appears in the International System of Units (SI), 1st ed. (1970) defined in a footnote as \"1 parsec is the distance at which 1 astronomical unit subtends an angle of 1 arcsecond; therefore, approximately, 1 pc = 206 265 AU = 30 857 x 10\u00b9\u00b2 m.\"\n\n- The International System of Units (SI), 1st ed. (1970) categorizes the unit as \"Units for use with the SI in specific domains.\"\n- The International System of Units (SI), 2nd ed. (1973) categorizes the unit as \"Non-SI units accepted for use with the International System, whose values in SI units are obtained experimentally.\"\n- The International System of Units (SI), 4th ed. (1981) and later editions omit the unit.",
