Millimeter / Meter Units Definition
Millimeter
The millimeter mm (thousandth of a meter, 10-3m). It is difficult to manipulate with your fingers an object smaller than 1mm. The micrometer or micron µm (thousandth of a mm, 10-6m): the thickness of soap bubbles, when they make pretty colors, is a few microns.
Meter
The meter is the unit of measurement par excellence since the origin of this unit comes from the Latin "metrum" and the Greek "metron" which mean measure. It is also this unit which gives its name to the diplomatic treaty which formalizes the decimal metric system: the convention of the meter, signed on May 20, 1875 by 17 nations, which today provides its basis for the International System of Units (SI).
