Every star, including the sun, is brighter than the moon. In fact, you
can't see the moon at all unless a star shines on it and lights it up.
Blue-white stars are the hottest and brightest stars; Sirius A (and its white dwarf companion Sirius B) is the brightest star in Earth's night sky.
the moon.
The Moon is illuminated by the Sun. At full moon, we see the bright part - the illuminated part. At new moon, we see mostly the dark part. (This part is also slightly visible, due to light reflected from the Earth.)
While the sun is the brightest object in our solar system, there are stars much brighter than the sun, such as Sirius and Canopus. Also, certain astronomical events like supernovae or quasars can briefly outshine even the brightest stars.
The brightest stars have a low magnitude. Magnitude is measured on a logarithmic scale where lower numbers indicate brighter objects. The brightest star in the night sky, Sirius, has a magnitude of -1.46.
The sun and the moon are not planets. The sun is a star and the moon is a natural satellite. The brightest planet in Earth's sky is Venus.
Venus is the brightest thing in the sky, after the Sun and Moon.
it is brightest when it is a clear night and no stars or nothing blocking the moon in outer space
The brightest OBJECTS in the sky, after the Sun, are the Moon, followed by planets Venus, Jupiter, and Mars (on rare occasions, Mars is brighter then Jupiter), followed by the star Sirius.The brightest stars proper are Sirius, followed by Canopus, Toliman, Arcturus, Vega...
Because Venus is a lot closer than the stars.
The brightest object in space, aside from the Sun and Moon, is the star Sirius. Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky and is located in the constellation Canis Major. It appears exceptionally bright due to its proximity to Earth and its high luminosity.
Blue-white stars are the hottest and brightest stars; Sirius A (and its white dwarf companion Sirius B) is the brightest star in Earth's night sky.
Venus
Neither. they are about the same
After the Sun, yes.
The Sun. Yes, but apart from the Sun, what's the brightest? The answer is "Sirius". This is apparent brightness. There are a lot of brighter stars, but they are farther away.
No. The Sun is
