The mass of a star determines the length of its life cycle (how long
will it burn).

Absolute Magnitude
• Apparent Brightness: The amount of light received on Earth from a star.
Apparent Magnitudevs.
• Actual Brightness: How large and hot a star is in relation to other stars.

Which star looks like it is giving off more light?
• But, which star is actually giving off more light?
