The moon is about 400 million meters away. The reflector array has a
size of the order of 1 meter. Even if the beam could be kept from
spreading, the person holding the pointer would have to keep it aimed to
within about 1/(400 million) radian or about 1/(10 million) degree. I'm a
bit shakier than that. Tom Sandin
