The article analyzes the geodetic support of space research. The article shows that geodesy is a science of space, and therefore, geodesic support can be extended to outer space. The analysis shows that the components of the geodetic support of space research are: space geodesy, geodesic astronomy, satellite geodesy and space geoinformatics. The geodetic support of space research has five directions of development. The geodetic support of space research has two groups, each of which includes all five areas. The first group is aimed at supporting Earth exploration from outer space and near-Earth outer space and aimed at exploring extraterrestrial space. The second group of geodetic support for space research is aimed at supporting research on extraterrestrial space. The article highlights the strategic and tactical tasks of geodetic support for space research. The main model, which is formed on the basis of the geodetic support of space research, is a three-dimensional model and a triangulation model for covering the surface of spatial objects. The article justifies the new term "geodetic support for space research". The article confirms the conclusion that geodesy and geoinformatics are applicable for the study and measurement of space bodies.
