  • Abstract
    The illumination requirements for vision, both for acuity and a sustained effort, are briefly discussed. These requirements are related to the problem of driving a vehicle over the lunar surface during sunlight and during earthshine conditions. Both exterior lighting and interior lighting and their interrelation are discussed, as well as the problems introduced by viewing windows and interior wall finish. Various lighting arrangements are analyzed and recommendations made.
