    Plus we left retroreflectors on the moon, that we can shoot laser beams at and get a return bean back.

    its used to measure the drift of the moon away from earth.

    the lunar reoglith is not reflective enough to bounce a signal back (and its been tested to death)

      We know it reflects light, so that just tells me we haven’t used a big enough laser yet :p
