The brightness of a star is usually referred to as its magnitude. Every star has two magnitudes. The apparent magnitude is how bright it appears to us here on earth. The absolute magnitude is the apparent magnitude that the star would have, if it were viewed from a standard distance. The apparent magnitude of our sun is vastly greater than that of any other celestial object. In terms of absolute magnitude, our sun can't begin to compare with some of the big bright stars in the universe.
As brightness is a function of a stars luminosity as observed from Earth, the Sun is most certainly the brightest star.
Our Sun is the closest star to Earth, therefore, the brightest.
Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky, but the brightest overall is the sun.
Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky.
Our sun is not the brightest star in the universe. It only appears brighter because it is much close than any other star. The brightest star as it appears in the sky is Sirius.
The sun is the brightest star as seen from Earth, but that is only because it is much closer to us than any other star.
