Star [magnitude](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnitude_(astronomy)) measures the brightness of celestial objects, with the sun on a log scale so that a magnitude $1$ star is $100$ times brighter than a magnitude $6$ star. The sun has a value around $-27$, Sirius (the brightest visible star) around $-1.46), Venus around $-5$. We will take a magnitude of $6$ or brighter for visibility. (magnitudes less than $6$). The value of $N(6)$ is then
