Why did you say that the reflection was 50 times brither than the sun?

That's not what he said - he said that the earth lights up the moon 50x
brighter than the full moon appears to us on Earth. That's a bit of a
difference from what you're claiming.

Sorry, I meant the moon.
So the glow is 50 times brighter than when its a full moon? Is this the time
when you see the moon glowing really really yellow?
