Abstract: To provide a method for estimating an absolute distance L between a tracking laser interferometer and a retroreflector 70, the tracking laser interferometer including; the retroreflector 70 for reflecting and returning incident measurement light A in an incident direction; and a two-axis rotating mechanism 40 for rotationally moving in an exit direction of the measurement light A so that optical axes of the measurement light A and return light B are collimated, which outputs a measurement value according to an increase or decrease in the distance between the interferometer and the retroreflector 70, wherein the absolute distance L between the interferometer and the retroreflector 70 is estimated by performing arithmetic operation based on an angular position variation θ 2  of the two-axis rotating mechanism 40 when a deviation amount d of the return light B from the retroreflector 70 relative to a predetermined position is given as a predetermined value d 2 . This enables an appropriate increase or decrease of the control amount of a tracking control according to a distance between the interferometer and the retroreflector without forcing an operator to perform a troublesome origin return operation and adding an expensive absolute distance sensor.
