Abstract
Under astronomically favorable circumstances, photographs do not reveal excess light near the triangular libration points of the earth-moon system. We find that the visible surface brightness of anomalous dust populations, if these populations do exist, is less than 10 -9 candela per square centimeter.Keywords
