Magnitudiltaan
Magnitudiltaan is a term used in astrophysics and astronomy to describe the brightness of celestial objects. It is a logarithmic scale, meaning that a difference of one magnitude corresponds to a difference in brightness by a factor of approximately 2.512. The scale is inverted, so brighter objects have smaller or more negative magnitude values, while dimmer objects have larger positive magnitude values.
The apparent magnitude of a celestial object is how bright it appears from Earth. This depends on
Absolute magnitude, on the other hand, is a measure of an object's intrinsic brightness, regardless of its
