Polar Motion from Laser Tracking of Artificial Satellites
1972
Measurements of the range to the Beacon Explorer C spacecraft from a single laser
tracking system at Goddard Space Flight Center have been used to determine the change in
latitude of the station arising from polar motion. A precision of 0.03 arc second was
obtained for the latitude during a 5-month period in 1970.
