SIMULATIONS FOR LRO
• Simulations of a Lunar Orbiter
mission flying an altimeter were
undertaken in support of GSFC’s
proposal for this round of
Discovery Missions. These
simulations assessed the efficacy
of using altimeter cross over data
to improve satellite positioning
and gravity recovery on the far
side of the moon

SummarySummarySummarySummarySummarySummarySummarySummary
• Observations Acquired by SLR, LLR, and Laser Altimetry are Major and Unique Science Resources
• Major Advancements in Modeling
– Gravity field accuracy
– Astrodynamic forces
– Thermal characterization of satellite components
– SLR data analysis techniques and correction algorithms
• Limitations
– Best SLR precision ~ 1-2 mm; Best orbit reductions ~ 1-2 cm
– Significant signal remains to be understood and exploited
– Terrestrial Reference Frame:
• Results are currently analysis center specific and rely on processing approaches
• Significant and pressing need for resolution
