## About The Project

### Introduction

Photometry is a measurement system used by astronomers in image processing, in particular the measurement of a celestial objects brightness over time utilizing the star magnitude index where the higher the number, the fainter the star looks to a naked eye and the lower the number, the brighter it looks to the naked eye. Such measurements can help determine the temperature of the star that can assist in finding out the stars distance, size and density.

Photometry works by capturing the light flux of the individual pixels of a star and then measuring and subtracting the sky background light flux that is emitted from the star, from the light flux to give the total flux light the star emits, this flux can then be converted into a magnitude. As atmospheric extinction i.e gas, clouds, exists between the camera and the target object, its sometimes necessary to select comparison stars and thus calculate the differential magnitude that can tell the exact magnitude of the star if extinctions does exist between.
