Does the moonlight contain ultraviolet rays?

Answer 1

Moonlight is simply light reflected from the Sun.

As Sunlight contains a proportion of UV rays, so will moonlight.

However, the Moon only reflects a tiny amount of the Sun's light and even less then the amount reflected reaches Earth. Given that most UV light is absorbed by the atmosphere anyway, it's not a major concern.

Answer 2

UV is a type of light, and at night none of the light (including UV) from the sun is reaching you.

There are very tiny amounts of UV light that come from other sources, such as fluorescent lights and even from the stars in the sky at night, but these are such small amounts of UV that they will never hurt you.

Answer 3

No, moonlight does not contain significant amounts of ultraviolet rays. Moonlight primarily consists of visible light, although a small amount of infrared radiation is also present. UV rays are absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere and are not typically reflected by the moon.

Answer 4

Yes, i believe it does.
