If it were possible to move a star towards the earth then its apparent magnitude number would decrease while its absolute magnitude number would stay the same.

Definition of apparent magnitude:

The luminosity of a celestial body (such as a star) as observed from the earth compare absolute magnitude.

So for example, the apparent magnitude of the Sun is -26.7 and is the brightest celestial object we can see from Earth. However, if the Sun were 10 parsecs away, its apparent magnitude would be +4.7, only about as bright as Ganymede appears to us on Earth.

Definition of absolute magnitude:

Absolute magnitude is a measure of the luminosity of a celestial object on an inverse logarithmic astronomical magnitude scale.

Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

If the center of the load is directly above the vertebrae, there is no torque in the system. This is a good thing so that the vertebrae are not put out of alignment over time. (Of course, this still doesn't prevent compression of the vertebrae over time, which is a possibility.)
