Re: Units, you nit!

Right there at the beginning of the article is this:

"The space station, roughly the size of a football pitch, will be home to the astronauts for four months."

I figured out that a football pitch is a third larger by area than a football field, yet both are the same size now, since both (roughly) match the ISS. I'm confused.
