The extreme resolution provided by laser interferometers can be exploited for improving the measurement of Earth’s gravity field from space. Here we describe the concept of a Next Generation Gravity Mission based on this optical metrology and some of the ongoing developments on the key technologies, carried out in preparation of an operational mission.
