Current and Future Lunar Science from Laser Ranging

Abstract

The interior properties of the Moon influence lunar tides and rotation. Three-axis rotation and tides are sensed by tracking lunar landers. The Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR) experiment has acquired three decades of accurate ranges from observatories on the Earth to four corner-cube retroreflector arrays on the Moon.
