Retroreflectors are mirrors that reflect the incoming light back in the same incoming direction. Calculating the time required for the beams to bounce back allowed scientists to precisely measure the Moon's shape and distance from Earth, both of which are directly affected by Earth's gravitational pull. More than 50 ye...
