Illumination conditions during a planetary orbit
Illumination conditions during a planetary orbit
Illumination conditions during a planetary orbit
The light received from the star and the planet changes during an orbit. After the transit, the brightness of the system increases because a larger proportion of the irradiated and thus heated planetary surface is turned towards the observer
