Lighting
The Lighting service controls global lighting in an experience. It includes a range of adjustable properties that you can use to change how lighting appears and interacts with other objects, as summarized in Lighting Properties.
Lighting may also contain an Atmosphere object to render realistic atmospheric effects, including particle density, haze, glare, and color. See Atmospheric Effects for details.
In addition, Lighting (along with Workspace.CurrentCamera) may contain post‑processing effects such as SunRaysEffect and BlurEffect.
Summary
