TL;DR: The baseline solution shows that estimation of the lunar gravity field is robust against both dynamic and kinematic errors and a nominal field of degree 300 or better could be achieved according to the scaled Kaula rule for the Moon.
A first demonstration of mars crosslink occultation measurements
TL;DR: A series of three crosslink occultation experiments have been acquired between the Mars Odyssey and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft to probe the Martian atmosphere i
2007 as mentioned in this paper, which represents the first demonstration of cross link occultation measurements at another planet.
