Abstract
The ability to detect planets orbiting stars has been evaluated through solar-spectrum Doppler shift measurements for 5 years, using the sunlit surface of the moon to furnish nighttime access to the solar spectrum integrated over the solar disk as though the sun were being observed at stellar distance. These lunar observations have indicated that the Doppler shift of the integrated solar photosphere disk in violet absorption lines has varied less that +/- 4 m/sec over the 1987-1992 interval studied.
