Hello ,i have a question how can celestia calculate the magnitude of all the stars shown in celestia a specified distance?

And how can i travel to it? (in celestia of course)

Can i also find(if i know where it is) the star Cygnus x 1?

What is FOV? And in reality is pluto less sunilluminated than mercury? I think of course yes. Can you answer this 2 questions? Thanks.
