Or 40% of a kilometre.

Sorry, they use miles in Star Trek. Ha ha, America wins. Stupid Europe and your stupid metric system and stupid rail network and stupid universal healthcare.

Never heard them use fantasy imperial system, are you sure?

Maybe in TOS, but didn't see much of that. But definitely not in TNG and everything that followed.

Nobody knows what kilometres are.

Really, it's quite easy. Just picture a container ship. Now double it and add an eighth of a mile. Simples.
