Descripción
Cyclic spectroscopic observations of the dark and bright sides of the moon (or earthshine and moonshine) have been carried out in the visible spectral region from several astronomical observatories as Earth rotates. The ratio of the earthshine to moonshine has been analyzed to determine the globally-integrated Earth's albedo during the observations. Information concerning to the search of terrestrial planets beyond the solar system can also be obtained from these results.
