This system means that one can measure fractions of a magnitude (Polaris, for example, is a mag 2.02 star) and that really bright objects can have negative magnitudes (Sirius is mag -1.58, Venus can be as bright as mag -4.4, the Sun is magnitude -26). It is still true, however, that most humans cannot see an object fainter than mag 6, though this limit varies among humans.
