Scientific paper

The inner zodiacal light was photographed from the Salyut 6 spacecraft in March 1978. Photometry of a frame exposed for 30 sec shows that at elongations epsilon greater than or equal to 22.5 deg the brightness distribution along the ecliptic varies as epsilon to the -k power, with k = 3.2. The northern portion of the zodiacal light is (10-20)% brighter than the southern portion.
