Which is brighter larger stars or smaller stars?
Brightness is related to distance. However, from the same distance, an O class star is much much brighter than a M class star. As a comparison, an O class star would appear about 100,000 times brighter than our Sun, whereas a M class star could appear 0.0017 dimmer than our Sun, if the Sun was replaced with each star.
