	Cubic metre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The cubic metre (symbol m³) is the SI derived unit of volume.
		A cubic millimetre (mm³) is the volume equal to that of a cube with edges of 1 millimetre.
		A cubic kilometre (km³) is the volume equal to that of a cube of side length 1 kilometre.

	Kilometre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A kilometre (American spelling: kilometer), symbol: km is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 1000 metres (from the Greek words χίλια (khilia) = thousand and μέτρο (metro) = count/measure).
		Like the kilometre, all units of length in the metric system are based on the metre, by adding an SI prefix that stands for a power of ten, such as hecto for one hundred to form hectometre (= 0.1 kilometre) or mega for one million to form megametre (= 1,000 kilometre).
		Unicode has symbols for "km" (㎞), for square kilometre (㎢) and for cubic kilometre (㎦); however, they are useful only in CJK texts, where they are equal in size to one Chinese character.

		A cubic decimetre (symbol dm³) is the volume of a cube of side length 1 decimetre (10 cm).
		A cubic millimetre (mm³) is a metric unit of volume, equal to that enclosed by a cube whose edges each measure one millimetre (mm).
		A cubic kilometre (symbol km³) is the volume of a cube of side length 1 kilometre (1000 metres).

		A kilometre (American English : kilometer), symbol: km is a Physical unit of Length in the Metric system equal to 1000 Metre (from the Greek language words ÏÎ¯Î»Î¹Î± (khilia) = thousand and Î¼ÎÏÏÎ¿ (metro) = count/measure).
		It is approximately equal to 0.621 Mile, 1094 Yard or 3281 Foot (unit of length).
		In theory, the pronunciation of the word kilometre should have the stress placed on the first syllable, in line with other metric prefixes (as in Kilogram, Joule and, analogous, Kilobyte).

	Evolution of stars
		The increase of speed of the particles means also that the temperature of the cloud increases: the temperature of an object is directly related to the speed of particles within that particular object - whether it is a bowl of water or a piece of iron, or an inter-stellar cloud.
		The carbon core of the star is extremely dense, one cubic centimetre of it weighing metric tons.
		By measuring signal distortion the scientists came to conclusion that the object emitting the signals was around 10-20 kilometres in radius, and yet as massive as the Sun.

	Evolution of the Stars
		A cubic centimetre or even a cubic kilometre of inter-stellar cloud contains a very limited number of particles and weighs extremely little.
		But the inter-stellar space is immense, so immense that the volume is no longer calculated in cubic centimetres or kilometres, but in years of light.
		Up to this moment, the original size of the cloud has also diminished from trillions of kilometres down to around 200 millions kilometres or less, which is roughly 30 000 times the diametre of the Earth.

		Litres are most commonly used for items measured by the capacity or size of their container (such as fluids and berries), whereas cubic metres (and derived units) are most commonly used for items measured either by their dimensions or their displacements.
		In 1793, the litre was introduced in France as one of the new "Republican Measures", and defined as one cubic decimetre.
		In 1964, at the 12th CGPM conference, the litre was once again defined in exact relation to the metre, as another name for the cubic decimetre, that is, exactly 1 dmÂ³.

		Along with energy giants Total, Chevron and Conoco, the Norwegian groups are particularly keen to be selected as partners in a Gazprom-led consortium that is preparing to construct a giant gas field in the Barents Sea, 560 kilometres north-east of Murmansk.
		Development costs are estimated at between $10bn (£5.6bn) and $25bn, though the lower figure is considered wildly optimistic by financiers with fresh memories of almost $3bn cost-overruns at the other major Barents Sea development, the $8.8bn Snohvit gas project just off the Norwegian coast near Hammerfest.
