Luna-25: Russia's first lunar mission in 47 years fails as it crashes on the Moon | Oneindia News
Russia's lunar mission, the Luna-25, has ended in failure.
The spacecraft got out of control and ultimately crashed into the surface of the Moon.
This marks a disappointing end to Russia's first moon mission in nearly half a century, as the country's state space corporation, Roscosmos, announced the incident.
The Luna-25 spacecraft encountered a catastrophic failure shortly after a critical manoeuvre as it was being positioned into its pre-landing orbit on Saturday.
In a statement released by Roscosmos, the agency revealed that contact with the spacecraft had been lost due to an unforeseen issue during this critical phase of the mission.
