Albedo of the planet as an indicator of the evolution of the Earth's climate (Dedicated to the 65th anniversary of the Keldysh Institute of Applied Mathematics and the achievements of the "Lunar Program")

The purpose of this publication is to draw attention to a class of large problems of aerospace remote sensing and global monitoring of the Earth's climate as a planet, for which solutions require parallel supercomputers and high-performance supercomputers. A spherical model of the Earth's radiation field is proposed to simulate the spectral and global albedo of the planet and a bit of history.
