Planet X: MAGNITUDE Clarification 3

The Zetas have stated that Planet X is a magnitude 2.0, but in a search
a lower magnitude (down to 10 or 11) must be assumed due to equipment
settings and the light spectrum that this smoldering dwarf emits.  They
have compared the viewing of Planet X to viewing of distant stars, as
follows:

    It does not shine with the intensity of most stars, but has a
    dull, diffuse, glow. It appears to be the last gasp of a dying
    star, a faint, blurry, reddish glow. Your eye would pass
    over it if attuned to the pin points that are the stars. A
    star is intense in the center and rapidly diminishes in
    intensity toward the edges of the spot you call a star. The
    light from a star comes from a single point and fans out,
    the periphery a bit less than the center, increasingly, but
    the center very intense. The 12th Planet, being nearer, is
    giving you light rays from its entire surface, so the light
    has an even quality to it.

So how is it that we can see stars in the night sky, but not Planet X?
Being more distance, aren’t they smaller than Planet X?  They are
probably a higher magnitude, but are at a greater distance.  The Zetas
wish to explain.

    Starlight is more than a highly intense pinpoint of light,
    it is light at the periphery, spreading outward from the
    center.  The WHOLE of this display is considered the star,
    expanding the size of the viewable object.  The intensity
    of light spreading from the pinpoint that represents the
    actual star is also high, diminishing from the center
    rapidly, but nevertheless of a high intensity.  Starlight
    viewed from Earth captures the center pinpoint and all
    light rays moving at an angle that can still be captured
    by the imaging device, be this the human eye or equipment.
    This greater viewing area makes distant stars appear
    LARGER than Planet X appears at the present time.
    Planet X emits light evenly from its surface, and being
    a lower magnitude than stars visible from Earth, light
    at the periphery disappears in the noise that dillutes and
    confuses equipment.  Thus, its VIEWABLE size cannot
    compete with stars.

So size, as well as magnitude, matter.  In addition, the light spectrum
is red, so unless a filter FOR red is used, it cannot compete.  The
Zetas have stated:

    The composition is not the composition of reflecting
    sunlight, but is almost exclusively in the spectrum you
    would call red light. Thus you will do best if you filter
    for red light, and by this we mean filtering out all but
    red light.
