Sentinel-6 Laser Retroreflector Array

Missions → Sentinel-6B (Commissioning) , Sentinel-6A Michael Freilich (Operational)

Laser retroreflector array supporting precise orbit determination for Sentinel-6 altimetry.

Included in the Atlas for completeness. This is a supporting payload carried on an Earth-observation platform rather than a primary observing instrument, so it has a catalogue record but no full profile.
