LINK Russia's Luna-25 mission ends in failure as spacecraft crashes on Moon - India Today
The Russian Moon Lander, Luna-25 has reportedly collided with the Surface of the Moon and “Ceased to Exist” after a Fault discovered yesterday caused the Lander to Crash near the South Pole; this was the First Moon Mission by the Russian Space Agency, Roscosmos in over 47 Years. I posted a link from India Today because Chandrayaan-3 is scheduled to complete the same mission the Russians just failed, to soft land on Lunar South Pole.

I hope so - if only to rub Putin's nose in it.

It will. Vlad the Impaler would shoot it down if the Russians were capable of doing so. They're not. This story isn't getting the press it should. This is huge for India. Fuck Putin Fuck Russian Federation. I laughed my ass off when I heard Luna 25 crashed. I was so happy.
Russia can't seem to get anything right these days.

And I wouldn't want to be anywhere near Putin for awhile!
@pamagain I am a member of a travel organization [servas.org] and am the only host in the county. My last visitor was a couple in 2019. Last week I received a note from an Alexei who wanted to visit the island. He was born and lived in the Soviet Union (his parents were physicists) but then moved to Germany, the Netherlands and now lives in Berkeley. He sent me a introduction letter (below). I asked him about his family and they all still live in Russia. They (and he said most) of the people are aware of what is going on but keep their mouths shut. It is a scary time there.
