Competing in the Crashed & Burned category, too bad.

At least they have the capability for it. But will they learn from it and have another go at it?

They're kind of distracted in Ukraine right now.

Why can’t these writers use the word crash?

First defeated by Ukraine. Now defeated by the Moon.

Just like Luna 15 in July 1969. I believe there was something else happening on the moon at that time. 😏

For a first try in 47 years, it made it to the moon. Its a success that it didn’t blow-up upon launch.

This is totally normal in the process of space exploration. Look at the failures of the Atlas program.

More recently, Space-X’s first rocket was the Falcon 1. Its first three launches were failures, followed by two successes. Then Falcon 9 became the workhorse rocket for a decade, with just two failures in 232 launches, for very high success rate of 99 percent

Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin is behind Space-X in commercial development, but they are similar.

The Russians realize they need to get their @sses in gear, because its once again obvious - free-market development and competition in the USA is pushing space-launch technology and scale in ways they and China simply can not compete with.

So, this is the latest spam story from the neocon nimrods? Focusing on this rather than the fact this country is turning into a totalitarian hellhole under Biden and the fact that Ukraine is failing miserably in its proxy war against Russia?

I suspect women programmers like the US had for Apollo 11 but we had a pilot that was able to bypass the bad computer code. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Hamilton_(software_engineer)

Now try landing on the moon using slide rules instead of super computers.
