What is a Log Scale, and how do you graph points for one?

Okay so I am on a project where it asks me to create a log scale, not a log graph, and I have no idea what one really is other than when I googled it, it said it can be used for Earth Quakes and pH. I am doing Astronomical Distances instead.
