- This paper was funded by the European MCRTN AstroNet (Grant No. MRTN-CT-2006-035151), and a European Research Council Grant (227571-VISIONSPACE). It improves the theoretical evaluation of quantum corrected coordinates of Lagrangian libration points of stable equilibrium and proves in detail that for collinear Lagrangian points, the quantum corrections are of the same order of magnitude in the Earth-Moon system. Furthermore, it presents a methodology for studying the quantum gravity effect using Satellite/Lunar Laser Ranging and a laser-ranged test mass equipped with cube corner reflectors. This paper led to Simo receiving an International Association of Advanced Materials (IAAM) Scientist Award in 2019.
