McDonald observatory lunar laser ranging: Beginning the second 25 years
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Extract
Lunar laser ranging (LLR) (Dickey et al., 1994) consists of measuring changes in the round-trip travel time for a laser pulse traveling between a transmitter on the Earth and a reflector on the Moon. The lunar surface reflectors are still operating normally after almost three decades of use. The ranging data exhibit a rich spectrum of change due to many effects.
