*Nov 20, 2019   Space Geodesy, its properties and tools, presented by Mike
Pearlman of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics *


*Geodesy is the science of accurately measuring and understanding three
fundamental properties of the Earth: its geometric shape, its orientation
in space, and its gravity field— as well as the changes of these properties
with time.*

*Space Geodesy uses sources external to the Earth: artificial satellites
(in satellite geodesy), quasars (in very-long-baseline interferometry,
VLBI), and the retroreflectors on the Moon (in lunar laser ranging) to
measure these static and time varying properties.*



*Of current interest are measurements to monitor geodetic parameters and
their temporal variations in a global reference frame with a target
relative accuracy of 10E-9 – 10E-10, for both scientific understanding of
the Earth system and understanding their potential impact on
society.Fundamental to these measurements is a reference frame that
provides stability over space, time, and evolving technology. *
* Nov 27, 2019  Thanksgiving. No meeting. Dec 4, 2019    Tesla and Marconi,
presented by Bob Primak *
