The most useful factor in classifying stars is knowing the color and brightness of a star. The color of a star is directly related to its temperature, and its brightness provides information about its distance and intrinsic properties. Together, these factors help in determining the star's classification in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram and its evolutionary stage.
