The Lunar Laser Ranging experiment is the ongoing meaurement of the distance between planet Earth and the moon. The measurment is calculated by using a laser.
One type of data currently collected as a direct result of the Apollo Program is the Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment. The ongoing Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment measures the distance between the Earth and the Moon using laser ranging. Lasers on Earth are aimed at retroreflectors planted on the Moon during the Apollo program (11, 14, and 15), and the time for the reflected light to return is determined.

yes
He looked for rocks on the moon to take back to earth and carried out some scientific experiments. Armstrong and Aldrin investigated how easy it was for man to operate on the Moon and set up the "Early Apollo Scientific Experiment Package" which comprised two separate packages the "Passive Seismic Experiment" and the "Laser Ranging Retroreflector"
No, Neal Armstrong did not leave his boot on the moon. His boot prints remained, and they are still there.

Retro-reflectors placed on the lunar surface by NASA's Apollo missions 11, 14 , and 15 were part of the Lunar Laser Ranging experiment. Teams from MIT, Russia, France, and Japan all participated in accurate measurements of the Moon's distance.
A laser ranging device is a device that uses a network of Earth's orbitting satelites.

A method of obtaining the range of a target by illuminating it with a laser.
laser is not used in that experiment. that was mercury lamp which is used for that exp.
