Often defined as the average distance between the Earth and Sun, about 150 million kilometres. But if you really want to impress (or bore) people, insist on the correct definition which is that the Astronomical Unit is the radius of a circular orbit in which an object of negligible mass, and free of other disturbances, would revolve around the Sun in 2pi/k days, where k is the Gaussian gravitational constant! Now you can see why people cheat and use the first "definition"
