Glare and celestial visibilityA model of the effects of glare on the visibility of astronomical sources as viewed with the human eye is developed whether unaided or through a telescope. This model closely reproduces observations of lunar appulses, Galilean satellites, Martian moons, double stars, and lunar occultations. Glare calculations are then applied to situations of historical and astronomical interest.
