When Apollo astronauts finally set down on the moon, one of their tasks will be to set up an array of reflectors. Scientists will bounce more powerful ruby laser pulses off the reflectors and will measure the time it takes for the pulses to return to earth. This data will enable them to determine the distance from earth to a fixed point on the moon with an accuracy of 6 in., measurements that should enable scientists to learn the precise size of the moon, to analyze its motions, to confirm continental drift on the earth, and perhaps even to learn...
