Luna 25 is a historic mission that will explore the moon’s south polar region, a scientifically intriguing and potentially resource-rich area that has never been visited before.
Russia’s first lunar mission in nearly half a century ended in disaster on Sunday, when the Luna-25 spacecraft smashed into the Moon’s surface after losing contact with Earth.
Newly discovered underground lava tubes near the Apollo 11 landing site on the Moon could serve as natural shelters for future astronauts, offering protection from extreme temperatures and space radiation.
