Russia's first lunar lander mission since 1976 is racing against India's Chandrayaan-3 lunar lander to be the first mission to ever land on the lunar south pole.
Chandrayaan-3 is expected to reach the lunar surface on August 23, around the same time as Luna-25. Both missions' landing dates aren't set in stone, meaning either could get there first.If all goes according to plan, the Luna-25 lander, which is roughly the size of a small car, will operate from the lunar south pole for a year.
Though the US space agency NASA was the first to send humans to the Moon, Russia's Luna-2 mission in 1959 was the first-ever mission to reach the Moon and Luna-9 in 1966 was the first to make a soft landing on the lunar surface. Now, Luna-25 is Russia's first lunar lander mission in 47 years. The country's space agency hopes to show the world it can continue its space operations unhindered by ongoing sanctions following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
