    Potential of Lunar Laser Ranging for the Determination of Earth Orientation Parameters

    The distance between the observatories on the Earth and the retro-reflectors on the Moon has been regularly measured with Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR) since 1970. In recent years, LLR observations have been carri...
