Astronomers define star brightness in terms of apparent magnitude (how bright the star appears from Earth) and absolute magnitude (how bright the star appears at a standard distance of 32.6 light years, or 10 parsecs).
This has nothing to do with shape. The apparent magnitude means how bright a star looks to us. The absolute magnitude means how bright the star really is (expressed as: how bright would it look at a standard distance).
The brightness of a star depends on its temperature, size and distance from the earth. The measure of a star's brightness is called its magnitude. Bright stars are first magnitude stars. Second magnitude stars are dimmer. The larger the magnitude number, the dimmer is the star.The magnitude of stars may be apparent or absolute.
Dwarf stars are NOT "so much Bright", the smaller the star is (provided it is on the main sequence) the less intrinsically bright it is.
That refers to its actual brightness, not to how we see it. The apparent brightness depends on the real ("absolute") brightness, but also on the distance.
You can trust your car to the man who wears the star - the big, bright Texaco star!
That means how bright the star really is. The "absolute magnitude" is defined as how bright the star would look if it were at a standard distance from us.
the sun, a light bulb, a star, the moon
No; the "magnitude" is how bright the star is. It can either mean:* The apparent magnitude = how bright it seems to us, * The absolute magnitude = how bright the star really is (i.e., how bright it would seem at a standard distance).
The bright star below the moon can vary depending on the time and location, but it is often the planet Venus. Venus is known for being one of the brightest celestial objects in the night sky, and its close proximity to the moon can create a striking visual display.

where is bright star the musical
We use the phrase "absolute magnitude" to describe how bright a star really is, and "apparent magnitude" to describe how bright it looks from Earth. The lower the number, the brighter the star. Like the Richter scale of earthquakes, the scale is logarithmic; a change of "1" indicates a difference of a factor of 10. For example, the bright red supergiant star Betelgeuse, at the upper left corner of the constellation Orion, has an absolute magnitude of -5.14, and an apparent magnitude of 0.58. Our Sun has an absolute magnitude of 4.83, and an apparent magnitude of -27.6.
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.
