Abstract
The Moon's umbral shadow, tangentially penetrating the Earth's atmosphere, appreciably reduces the brightness of the twilight sky at points located under the shadow axis. This should yield favourable conditions for observation of the zodiacal light for small altitudes of the Sun below the horizon. The location of the projection of the Moon's shadow axis at the Earth's surface under the above conditions is calculated for the case of the total solar eclipse of 30 June, 1992.
