Exaliter
An exaliter (EL) is a unit of volume equal to 10^18 liters, used to measure extremely large quantities of liquid.
History/Origin
The exaliter was introduced as part of the metric system's extended prefixes to facilitate measurement of vast volumes, though it is rarely used in practical applications due to its enormous size.
Current Use
The exaliter is primarily used in scientific contexts, such as astrophysics and large-scale environmental studies, where measuring extremely large volumes is necessary.
