Is brightness equated with heat? I have observed a mag -7 iridium flair only maybe for a couple of seconds? and it did not as far as I am aware do any damage.
Would looking at a point source such as a mag minus thirteen star actually burn your eye?
I have had someone set off a camera flash very close to my 16" scope when I was observing, which other than being like the effect at looking at the Moon was all the effect I got.
