Solar radiation is an exterior heat source of the Moon and represents a key resource with respect to returning to the Moon. It controls the variation of lunar-surface temperature during the lunation, and changes the thermal radiation properties of the lunar surface. In lunar Earth-based exploration, orbital exploration, and manned and unmanned lunar surface activities, solar radiation is an important factor which should be considered.
