So-called moonshine is simply light reflected or re-emitted from the moon and this radiation serves to heat the earth slightly. This also varies with the phases of the moon during the month. This extra radiation is just 10**-5 that of the direct solar energy so this also gives a roughly 0.01-0.02 degree effect. 3) Stabilising the Earthâs axis. It seems likely that without the moonâs stabilising gyroscopic effect the earthâs axis would be more chaotic.
Watts are only a part of the equation. With the right antenna people have sent a single to the moon. Bounced it off the moons surface (moon bounce) and picked it up on an earth based receiver using only 100 watts. That's almost 500,000 miles round trip.
