Russia could not make history. Russian spacecraft ‘Luna-25’ crashed on the moon. The country’s space agency Roscosmos reported this on Sunday (August 20). The Russian vehicle was supposed to land on the moon on Monday. But that dream did not come true. A successful landing of the Russian spacecraft on the south pole of the Moon on Monday would have made new history. Because no country’s spacecraft has successfully landed in that South Pole before. But now India is standing in front of history. India’s Chandrayaan-3 is scheduled to land on the moon’s south pole on Wednesday. Doubts were raised about the Russian spacecraft on Saturday itself. After another step, the spacecraft would have reached the closest orbit to the moon. But before that there was a problem. Luna-25 faced an ’emergency situation’ before its final orbit descent on Saturday. As a result, he could not be delivered into orbit according to the specific measurements and plans. It ran faster than the prescribed speed and crashed into the lunar surface. Russia participated in this first lunar mission in the last 47 years. But that attempt failed. Meanwhile, India’s Chandrayaan-3 is scheduled to land on the South Pole of the Moon on Wednesday. India’s Chandrayaan decelerates after separation from main spacecraft The speed will be reduced for the second time on Sunday. The Indian spacecraft will land on the lunar surface as gently as a bird’s feather. Which is called ‘soft landing’. Lander ‘Vikram’ is scheduled to land on the Moon’s South Pole on Wednesday evening. Chandrayaan 3 crossed the land of the moon on July 14. About a month later, the Russian spacecraft was launched. Luna-25 passed towards the moon on 10 August. The Russian spacecraft was supposed to land on the moon on Monday. There was speculation that Vladimir Putin’s country will touch the moon before India? Ultimately, Moscow’s goal failed.
