キーワード:International Laser Ranging Service, Geodesy, Lunar Laser Ranging, Laser Ranging Network, Time Transfer, Space Debris
Over the past few years, the International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS) has experienced significant growth. New stations being built and brought into operation are expanding spatial and temporal coverage. Some of these stations are multi-technique Core Sites. New satellites are expanding applications and strengthening the ILRS contribution to the reference frame. New analysis, modeling, and data processing techniques are improving data products. New campaigns are expanding our applications into relativity and the study of non-gravitational forces. New activities underway in Lunar ranging, Space Debris tracking, and time transfer have also expanded the application of laser ranging. This talk will give an update on ILRS activities and the impact that these activities have had and will have on ILRS data products.
