Heavenly clarity in the evening, with clouds
Description
The sky brightness is a measure of how dark it is at night. It is the luminance (light intensity per surface unit) in the point in the sky when you look straight up (the so-called Zenit). The luminance varies greatly at a location. In this map you can see the calculated sky brightness expressed in milicandela per m² for the situation:
[1] In the evening without clouds.
[2] in the night without clouds.
[3] in the evening with clouds.
[4] in the night with clouds.
N.B. Only Dutch sources are included in the calculation. Sources from abroad are missing. As a result, the calculated sky brightness in the border region is probably an underestimation of the real sky brightness.
