Aerospace | The illumination of the dark part of the moon's disk produced by sunlight reflected onto the moon from the earth's surface and atmosphere. Also called earthshine.Spectroscopic observations reveal that earthlight is relatively richer in blue light than is direct sunlight; this condition results from the fact that an appreciable part of the total earth reflection is backward-scattered light which, in accordance with Rayleigh law, is relatively rich in the blue and poor in the red.
