The petaliter was introduced as part of the extended metric system to facilitate measurements in fields such as astronomy and large-scale environmental studies, gaining recognition in the early 21st century.
Current Use
Currently, the petaliter is used mainly in scientific research, particularly in astrophysics and climate science, to quantify vast volumes such as cosmic gas clouds or global water reserves.
Milliliter
A milliliter (mL) is a unit of volume equal to one thousandth of a liter, commonly used to measure small quantities of liquids.
History/Origin
The milliliter was introduced as part of the metric system in the 19th century, aligning with the liter as the base unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI).
