The distance from a point on the surface of Earth to a point on the surface of the moon is measured by aiming a laser light beam at a reflector on the surface of the moon and measuring the time required for the light to make a round trip. The uncertainty in the measured distance Δx is related to the uncertainty in the measured time Δt by Δx = 1/2 c Δt. The time intervals can be measured to ±0.90 ns.
