Behind the scenes
The metric system is the primary form of measurement. However temperature units would not be named Celsius, Kelvin, or Fahrenheit, since they were named for men from Earth, but rather by centigrade or the more benign "standard" developed in the online Visual Guides.

The metric system also applies to quantities as well, beyond the standard SI prefix. See Large Numbers for more details.
