The brightest a star can appear on a scale is called its "absolute magnitude." This measurement indicates how bright a star would appear if it were located at a standard distance of 10 parsecs (about 32.6 light-years) from Earth. The scale is logarithmic, meaning that a difference of 5 magnitudes corresponds to a brightness factor of 100.
