“…Robley (26.106.020, 28.106.02l*) reported a sudden change, near 1968, in the brightness of the Gegenschein, as observed from Pic-du-Midi, and related this event to solar wind variation. Asaad (1979) examined some possible explanations for the discrepancies between reported zodiacal light brightnesses.…”

The light of the night sky includes several components which spread all over the celestial sphere. These light components are terrestrial (airglow), interplanetary (zodiacal light), galactic (integrated starlight, diffuse galactic light) and extragalactic (extragalactic background light). Thus the study of nature of each light source, covering large distance, is pursued in different fields of astronomy. However, the techniques of measurement for respective components are similar and the knowledge of other lights is indispensable even in the study of a particular component.
