    Each reflector is 3.8 cm (1.5 in) in diameter sitting 1.9 cm (0.75 in) below the panel's top surface and mounted between Teflon rings for greater thermal protection. [5] The panel could be set at a slight incline so that the panel could present a more optimized cross-sectional area. [5]

    A bicycle reflector appears brighter to the passenger car driver than to the truck driver at the same distance from the vehicle to the reflector. [1] The light beam and the normal axis of the reflector as shown in Figure 2 form the entrance angle. The entrance angle is a function of the orientation of the reflector to the light source.

    The locations of lunar retroreflectors left by Apollo (A) and Luna (L) missions. Retroreflectors are devices which reflect light back to its source. Six were left at six sites on the Moon by three crews of the Apollo program, two by remote landers of the Lunokhod program, and one by the Chandrayaan program. [1]

The reflecting telescope was invented in the 17th century by Isaac Newton as an alternative to the refracting telescope which, at that time, was a design that suffered from severe chromatic ...

    As many as 50,000 return photons detected in a single lunation (during 5 hours total operation). As of mid-2011, the range precision (per session) was believed to be about 1.8–3.3 mm per reflector, [25] while the orbit of the Moon is being determined to roughly the 15 mm level. [25]
