Metre \Me"tre\ (m[=e]"t[~e]r), n.
See {Meter}.
[1913 Webster]

(US "meter") The fundamental {SI} unit of length.

From 1889 to 1960, the metre was defined to be the distance
between two scratches in a platinum-iridium bar kept in the
vault beside the Standard Kilogram at the International Bureau
of Weights and Measures near Paris.

This replaced an earlier definition as 10^-7 times the
distance between the North Pole and the Equator along a
meridian through Paris; unfortunately, this had been based on
an inexact value of the circumference of the Earth.

From 1960 to 1984 it was defined to be 1650763.73 wavelengths
of the orange-red line of krypton-86 propagating in a vacuum.

It is now defined as the length of the path traveled by light
in a vacuum in the time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second.
