Location
The satellite laser ranging station Golosiiv-Kiev of the Main Astronomical Observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (MAO NASU) was founded in 1985. The third-generation equipment of the station was mounted in 1985. Due to some reasons the station was not in operation up to 1996. The experimental ranging of satellites started on 1 April 1997. The routine ranging of night passes has been carried out since January 2000, and its results have been sent to the Eurolas Data Center (EDC) at DGFI/ILRS Global Data Center. The SLR station Golosiiv-Kiev was included in the International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS) in 2000. The satellite laser ranging station Golosiiv-Kiev was added to the list of the National objects of Ukraine.
