Apparent Magnitude. The apparent magnitude of a celestial object, such as a star or galaxy, is the brightness measured by an observer at a specific distance from the object. The smaller the distance between the observer and object, the greater the apparent brightness.(left) Two stars, A and B, with the same apparent magnitude.(right) However, star A is actually a more luminous star that is further away from the Earth than than star B. Two objects that have the same apparent magnitude, as seen from the Earth, may either be:o convert the apparent magnitude, m, of a star into a real magnitude for the star (absolute magnitude, M), we need to know the distance, d to the star. Alternatively, if we know the distance and the absolute magnitude of a star, we can calculate its apparent magnitude. Both calculations are made using:
