Analyses of laser ranges from Earth to Moon yield several tests of interest to gravitational physics: the equivalence principle, geodetic precession, PPN β and γ, and invariance of the gravitational constant G. Ranges extend into year 2000 and the weighted rms range residual for the past four years is 1.8 cm after fits. Improved range accuracy, longer data span, and improved modeling result in solution uncertainties for gravitational physics parameters which are reduced by factors of two or more compared to 1996 results. The rate for G improves seven fold.
