Abstract

The paper discusses the results of joint developments carried out by the Institute of Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS); Space Research Institute, RAS; and ROSCOSMOS organizations (Central Research Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Lavochkin Scientific-Production Association, the branch affiliate of Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center, VNIITransmash) for gravitoinertial measurements aboard spacecraft, Earth satellites, and planets of the solar system in solving problems of satellite accelerometry, gradiometry (precision accelerometric measurements aboard spacecraft and space stations, including Progress, Salyut, Mir, and the ISS), as well as measurements of the seismogravity fields of the planets of the solar system (the Fobos-Grunt, Solar Sail, MetNet, Luna-Resurs, and Exo-Mars projects).
