One of the most complex challenges in space-based remote sensing is attaining the high level of instrument calibration accuracy required while in orbit. The Moon, as an exoatmospheric calibration source, presents a promising solution. However, its current status as an absolute reference has accuracy limitations of 5-10%, which falls short of the rigorous requirements for Earth science observatio
