The siriometer is a rarely used and an obsolete astronomical unit of length, defined to be equal to about one million astronomical units (au). One siriometer is approximately 149.6 petametres; 4.848 parsecs; 15.81 light-years. It's about twice the distance from Earth to the star Sirius. The unit was proposed in 1911 by Carl V. L. Charlier who used the symbol "sir." Others have suggested denoting the unit with the symbol 'Sm'.
The siriometer never gained widespread usage. The first General Assembly of the International Astronomical Union in 1922 adopted the parsec as the standard unit of stellar distances, which simplified the definition of absolute magnitude. Use of the siriometer seems to have disappeared from the astronomical literature by c.1930. Professional astronomers use the parsec as their primary unit of distances larger than the Solar System.
