Measure of brightness for celestial objects, as seen from Earth
Apparent magnitude is a measure of the brightness of a star, astronomical object or other celestial objects like artificial satellites. Its value depends on its intrinsic luminosity, its distance, and any extinction of the object's light caused by interstellar dust along the line of sight to the observer. Wikipedia
