Luna-25 had been expected to stay on the Moon for a

year, collecting soil samples and looking for water -- an
ingredient enthusiasts hope could be used to make rocket
fuel for future launches and support potential colonies
living there. Cameras installed on the lander had taken
shots of the lunar surface.
The space agency has said an investigation will be

launched into the causes of the crash, without giving any
indication of what technical problems might have
occurred.

that began in February 2022.
People leaving church after marking a religious holiday

and others passing by were among those hurt when the
missile hit the theatre, where a meeting was taking place,
Chaus said.

Law enforcement agencies were looking into how Russians

became aware of the event, which he said included
business and community representatives but Ukrainian
media reported involved drone manufacturers. Both sides
have widely used drones on the battlefield.
An event organizer said all the participants, including

engineers, members of the military and volunteers, were
asked to go to an air raid shelter in the theatre when the
alarm sounded, but some people went outside. ADVERTISEMENT
"All those who took shelter remained safe," Maria

Berlinska, a co-founder of the Dignitas Fund, whose
fundraising includes money for drones for the frontline,
said in a Facebook post.
A wounded woman said her friend pulled her out of one of

the damaged buildings after a part of the ceiling fell on
her head.
The streets were stained with blood trails and strewn with
scraps from first-aid supplies that had been used to treat
the wounded.
Kyiv's air force said early on Saturday the Ukrainian

military had shot down 15 out of 17 Iranian-made Shahed
drones launched by Moscow in an overnight strike.
Meanwhile, Russia's Defence Ministry said on Saturday it

had destroyed a Ukrainian drone in the Belgorod region
and jammed another near Moscow. A third struck a
military airfield in the Novgorod region, damaging a
warplane, it also said.

reported an “abnormal situation” Saturday on its moon-

The country’s space agency, Roscosmos, said the
spacecraft ran into unspecified trouble while trying to
enter a pre-landing orbit, and that its specialists were
analyzing the situation.
“During the operation, an abnormal situation occurred on

Roscosmos did not specify whether the incident will

prevent Luna-25 from making a landing.
The spacecraft is scheduled to land on the south pole of

the moon on Monday, racing to land on Earth
Russian attack on
Ukraine's Chernihiv (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/earth)’s
satellite ahead of an Indian spacecraft. The lunar south
pole is of particular interest to scientists, who believe the
official/articleshow/102860387.cm
permanently shadowed polar craters may contain water.
The frozen water in the rocks could be transformed by
future explorers into air and rocket fuel.
Also on Saturday, the Russian spacecraft produced its first

results. Though Roscosmos said the information was
undergoing analysis, the agency reported that the
preliminary data obtained contained information about the
chemical elements of the lunar soil and that its equipment
had registered a “micrometeorite impact.”
Roscosmos posted images of the Zeeman crater – the

third largest in the moon’s southern hemisphere – taken
from the spacecraft. The crater has a diameter of 190
kilometers (118 miles) and is eight kilometers (five miles)
deep.
The launch from Russia’s Vostochny spaceport in the Far

East of the Luna-25 craft on Aug. 10 was Russia’s first
since 1976 when it was part of the Soviet Union.
The Russian lunar lander was expected to reach the moon

between Aug. 21 - 23, around the same time as an Indian
craft which was launched on July 14.
Only three governments have managed successful moon

landings: the Soviet Union, the United States and China.
India and Russia are aiming to be the first to land at the
moon’s south pole.
Roscosmos said it wants to show Russia “is a state capable

of delivering a payload to the moon,” and “ensure Russia’s
guaranteed access to the moon’s surface.”
Sanctions imposed on Russia after it invaded Ukraine

make it harder for the country to access Western
technology, impacting its space program. The Luna-25 was
initially meant to carry a small moon rover but that idea

improved reliability, analysts say.
“Foreign electronics are lighter, domestic electronics are

heavier,” Egorov said. “While scientists might have the
task of studying lunar water, for Roscosmos the main task
is simply to land on the moon — to recover lost Soviet
expertise and learn how to perform this task in a new era.”
The spaceport is a pet project of Russian President

Vladimir Putin and is key to his efforts to make Russia a
space superpower and move Russian launches from the
Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
A previous Indian attempt to land at the moon’s south

pole in 2019 ended when the lander crashed into the
moon’s surface.
