It sure doesn't, but I think you're thinking way too complex. We don't want to
render physical light intensity, we want to render perceived light intensity,
and there the Weber Fechner law

Thanks, that was what I was hoping for :-)
It depends a bit on if Fred wants to do anything with the moon - my scheme
would be fin

It should be just a matter of rendering two spheres inside an FBO and using the
resulting shadow map when rendering the moon sphere to show moon eclipses, or
altering
Hi Thorsten,
One more tidbit of info on phase of the moon. The phase of the moon is
proportional to the relative location of the sun and the moon in the sky;
more specifically the angle between them. For example, a full moon will be
rising precisely when the sun is setting -- in this case they a
Just a quick note for now, because I've got a lecture coming up in about 30
minutes...
If you need any information about the moon's position and/or phase, just let me
know. It should be trivial to extract these values from the ephemeris code.
Cheers,
Durk

Not really - unlike glowing stuff, it is actually obscured by cloud cover for
instance.

I was toying with this for a while, but now I have a reasonably cheap solution
to render moonlight effects:

Now, all I need is the info about the current moon phase and if the moon is
above the horizon which is *some
