3//! Physical and empirical NSB component models.
4//!
5//! Each submodule in this directory corresponds to one contributor to the
6//! night-sky background:
7//!
8//! * `zodiacal` — sunlight scattered by interplanetary dust
9//! * `starlight` — unresolved integrated starlight
10//! * `airglow` — emission from Earth's upper atmosphere
11//! * `moonlight` — scattered moonlight in the atmosphere
12//!
13//! Scientific role:
14//! the total NSB prediction is a sum of components with different physical
15//! origins and different dependencies on sky direction, time, and observing
16//! conditions. Keeping them separate lets the evaluator expose both totals and
17//! scientifically interpretable per-component contributions.
