Diskussionsbeitrag über Möglichkeiten zur Beobachtung des aschgrauen Mondlichts bei totalen Sonnenfinsternissen.

We haven't traced the results of moon ash light observations during last solar eclipses in spite of the simplicity of this idea. In our opinion the precious pictures of moon ash light taken at the totality of the solar eclipse and combined with the same ones at other known moon phases will help to obtain data about earth atmosphere albedo.

We would like to discuss the simplest equipment set which may be accessible almost for any amateur, the mathematical support of this task and peculiarities of photometrical measurement.
