OK, I have an idea, and it's based on the double "burst" radius idea. The star cluster's second burst radius would be the range at which a person could see the star cluster given an Average roll. OK, so an Average: What roll? OK, Agility is a natural for this, but having poor agility doesn't mean you're not see a bright light in your face. Observation is also a natural, but the same argument applies.
My guess would be Average: (Highest of Agility, Intelligence, or Observation). Inside half this radius, it becomes an Easy roll. At twice that radius, it becomes a Difficult roll. Etc. Ambient light conditions, intervening terrain, etc, would be modifiers.
What do you think?
