How bright do stars or other celestial bodies appear from the earth compared to other things that we see? And what happens at zero when it is minus four? Exactly, so I chose a few things to compare that were specified in the table. At the very top it said sun, a star with minus 27 mag. It's a logarithmic scale, the lower the brighter. No, just kidding. The higher, the brighter.

Yes, it has a very cool, pleasant light. It can't be dangerous. That means... No, full moon was minus 12. That means the comet was pretty harmless. We wouldn't have been able to see it with our eyes. Mostly harmless. The other two comets, do you know who they are?
