So you're arguing that the Moon does not absorb any light? Really?
Where did I say that? You would have such an easier time understanding other people if you stopped trying read words that aren't being said. In a debate, all the knowledge about the other person you need is in their posts.
You might want to look at the punctuation at the end of my question. I asked if that was your position. I did not say that it was your position. Please pay attention. Would you now do us all the favor of answering my questions? Thanks.
Also, more than just reflection is involved in the experiment. The direction, intensity, and color shift of the reflection all play important roles. Please watch the MB episode again.
All of those variables simply depend on the type of laser being used.
No, they depend on quite a variety of factors beyond just the type of laser being used. I'd say that some or all of the following, and probably more, influence the result: the color of the Moon's surface targeted, the longitude and latitude targeted, the amount of moisture in the atmosphere between the source and the target, and the reflective properties of the target. Why would a laser even have to be used?
