The Light of the Stars and Their Measured Glow
Various estimates place the total light of visible stars to about 1 180 of the moon’s brightness for all stars in both hemispheres. Arglerander catalogues 324 000 northern stars to ninth and a half magnitude with Agnes M Clerk’s data, while Abney and Newcomb offer alternative totals. The sky’s residual glow from atmospheric processes may keep it luminous even if stars vanished.
