  The  GEOS  1  (Geodetic  Earth  Orbiting  Satellite)  spacecraft was a
  gravity-gradient-stabilized,    solar-cell   powered   unit   designed
  exclusively  for geodetic studies.  It was the first successful active
  spacecraft    of    the    National    Geodetic   Satellite   Program.
  Instrumentation   included   (1)   four  optical  beacons,  (2)  laser
  reflectors,  (3)  a  radio range transponder, (4) Doppler beacons, and
  (5)  a  range  and  range  rate  transponder.   These were designed to
  operate   simultaneously   to   fulfill  the  objectives  of  locating
  observation  points (geodetic control stations) in a three dimensional
  earth  center-of-mass  coordinate  system  within 10 m of accuracy, of
  defining  the  structure  of the earth's irregular gravitational field
  and  refining  the  locations  and  magnitudes  of  the  large gravity
  anomalies, and of comparing results of the various systems onboard the
  spacecraft  to  determine  the  most  accurate  and  reliable  system.
  Acquisition  and recording of data were the responsibility of the GSFC
  Space  Tracking  and  Data  Acquisitions  Network (STADAN).  Ten major
  observing networks were used.
