In work achievements and barriers on a way of the decision of problems refractometry – a science studying laws expansion of electromagnetic waves (EMV) in non-uniform for density to an atmosphere of the Earth and in interplanetary space are stated. The contribution of the Lvov school of a refraction to this science and the further research problems is described.
