Hi Guys

Thanks for the links Raoul :-)

I want to know how they got the figure of -12.6 for the Moon, since my best estimate is -11.3. That's quite a difference! Just what is the Moon's reflectivity in visible light? I used its albedo which I remembered as being ~ 0.06, but I must be off by a fair amount.

Perhaps that's its bolometric albedo?
