How would a star look if it were closer to the earth?

It all depends on how big the star was, how far it was from us in the first instance, and also, more importantly, HOW much closer. A star 1 million light years away, that moved 1% closer, you wouldn't see any difference. Basically, a star would have to be VERY close to make any real visual difference.


If star A is closest to us than star b then A's parallax angle is?

If star A is closer to us than star B, then A's parallax angle is larger than B's. Parallax angle is inversely related to distance; the closer an object is, the greater the angle observed as it moves against the background of more distant stars. Therefore, star A's parallax angle will be greater than that of star B.


Is the closer a star is to earth the brighter it is?

Yes. A star that is closer to us will appear brighter than if it were farther away. However, stars also vary in their actual brightness, so how bright a star appears depends on both how far away it is and how bright really it is.
