Imaging in Shadows: A Comparison of Craters Observed in Primary and Secondary Illumination with the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera
By definition, permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) never receive primary illumination from the Sun. However, most receive secondary illumination reflected from crater walls and nearby massifs. The nature of that secondary illumination, diffuse lighting that can vary significantly across small distan...
