Abstract
Laser ranging systems development has played a major role in advancing the tracking of spacecraft, as well as obtaining precise measurements for scientific experiments. This paper will describe the application of laser ranging for intercomparison of tracking systems, spacecraft and lunar tracking, and scientific experiments.
