hi,

when people talk about a star's brightness and a star's luminosity, what do they mean?

am i right in describing brightness as the number of photons per second reaching us from the star?

and luminosity i have no clue about, just that its related to how massive a star is.

also,

if a star was shining with a bright blue light many, many times brighter than the sun, why would that indicate that this star is younger than the sun? is there any other way that i could determine the relative ages of the stars?

On some ocasions i have looked at the moon and have been convinced it looks larger and i can see more detail. Is this a consequence of the lensing effect of ou atmosphere, or sometimes is it flying closer to make it appear so?

A rocket ship is initially in a circular orbit close to earth. It is desired to place the rocket ship in an orbit where the apogee distance is 60x that of the original. A single rocket ship burst is used to accomplish this, only in the tangential direction. What is the final to initial speed ratio. Also, if the speed thrust was 1% too great, what is the new apogee distance?
