List three factors that control the apparent brightness of a star as seen from earth?
Three factors that affect a star's brightness are the star's distance from earth, its age and its luminosity. The farther the star is from earth, the less bright it appears. As a star increases in age, its brightness also increases. Its brightness also depends on its luminosity, which is the amount of energy the star emits per second.

What three things affect the apparent magnitude of a star?
1: The size of the planet.2: The planet's distance from the Sun.3: The "albedo" of the planet (the percentage of the Sun's light it reflects).If you mean how bright the planet appears to us on Earth, then the distance from Earth is obviously very important.
