Using the mirrors left on the lunar surface by the Apollo missions, mirrors allowing the Earth-Moon distance to be measured precisely by lasers, it has been determined by scientists that the moon is moving from the Earth at the almost imperceptible rate of three to four centimeters per year.
B, allowing that the Earth-Moon distance can be measured precisely by lasers, scientists have been able to determine that the moon is moving
D, that allow that the Earth-Moon distance can be measured precisely by lasers, scientists were able to determine that the moon is moving away
The given answer is D, but I think B is better. "move from" and "move away from", which one is better? And which tense is better in this case?
