Talk:Lunar Temperature
Revision as of 10:18, 8 September 2009 by 71.96.208.175 (rv to last edit by Charles F. Radley)
Some items still missing:
- what's the right value for the average emissivity (1 - reflectivity) - i.e. what fraction of incoming sunlight is reflected by the surface, rather than absorbed?
- because of orbital dynamics the solar constant varies - what is the range and what effect does this have on temperatures (seasonality?)
- how low does the temperature drop during eclipses of the sun by the Earth?
- what is the actual night-time profile?
- what is the actual depth profile?

- Arthur, the term used is Albedo, rather than reflectivity.Charles F. Radley 13:40, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
