General Goals<br />
• Technology dem<strong>on</strong>str<str<strong>on</strong>g>at</str<strong>on</strong>g>or of a Compact <strong>Laser</strong> Rangefinder<br />
applicable in future space projects :<br />
• Mercury planet altimetry<br />
• Lunar altimetry and surface mapping<br />
• <strong>on</strong>-board optical transp<strong>on</strong>der(s) for Earth orbiter(s)<br />
