Abstract
Abstract We have measured the degree of linear polarization of the Moon during its total eclipse on 2022 November 8, and found P ≈ −2% in the V filter. The plane of preferential polarization was oriented at ∼36° counting clockwise from the lunar equator. These measurements suggest global asymmetry in the spatial distribution of aerosol particles in the uppermost atmosphere of Earth, with their net linear polarization being P ≈ −6.5%.
