The standard compilation of how bright the night sky's diffuse light is and where it comes from: airglow, zodiacal light, integrated starlight, diffuse galactic light and the extragalactic background, each tabulated. The three-dimensional sky's zodiacal light is a smooth fit to its Table 17, the zodiacal light in S10 units as a function of helioecliptic longitude and ecliptic latitude, and its airglow term is drawn on the same scale by a stated equivalence; see the note on zodiacalLightS10 in the renderer.
