When I shine a laser pointer on my daughter's glow-in-dark moon it glows more brightly where the laser has hit it. I have heard before that shining a laser on glow-in-dark material discharges the glow in that area. This is the exact opposite effect. For reference my laser is a normal red handheld laser pointer and the glow-in-dark moon glows with a pale green colour after being exposed to incandescent light. The material glows with the same colour but brighter for a few seconds after the laser has hit it.
