Abstract
Satellite laser ranging (SLR), which is the most accurate geodetic method for precise orbit determination of artificial satellites, will be used to determine the precise orbit of STSAT2. This paper will present the development of a Laser Reflector Array (LRA) of STSAT2. Currently one LRA was designed, analyzed, manufactured, optically tested and assembled.
