∙ 11y agoNothing serious would have happened. They could have used Imperial measurements if they wanted to. Obviously it would be stupid if some suppliers used Metric to make parts , and other suppliers used Imperial. Scientists are not so silly as to allow anything to be made, without having a written specification for the precise details of every single measurement. They are certainly wise enough to demand the use of metric standards; not some other crazy standard such as Imperial. Metric (SI) system is used by almost every nation in the world except USA. But USA Scientists ALL use SI units. That has been happening for more than 100 years to the best of my knowledge.
Which system of measurements was used doesn't really matter as they all can be equally precise if the engineers working on the project are equally precise. What matters is that everyone uses the same system, or are proficient at converting from one system to the other. While a universally adopted set of standards may make building things easier, it certainly doesn't guarantee a higher degree of excellence in the finished product.

∙ 11y agoIf scientists had not used the International System of Units during the construction of the international space station, there would have been confusion and potential errors in measurements, calculations, and communication between international teams. This could have led to safety risks, technical failures, and inefficiencies in the construction process of the space station.

In 2006, Ceres was reclassified from an asteroid to a dwarf planet by the International Astronomical Union. This decision was based on its size, spherical shape, and location in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
After the devastation of World War II, many nations came together to establish the United Nations in 1945, with the goal of promoting global cooperation, peace, and security. This led to the creation of various international organizations and agreements aimed at fostering collaboration, such as the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Efforts were made to prevent future conflicts through diplomacy, aid, and collective action.
1. It makes international projects easier to handle2. It avoids errors when some parts of a project may be in traditional US units and some in SI (I believe this happened with NASA on one occasion)
