Russia's Luna-25 spacecraft suffers technical glitch, space agency says

An "abnormal situation" occurred at Russia's Luna-25 spacecraft on Saturday as it was preparing to transfer to its pre-landing orbit, Russia's national space agency Roskosmos said.

The Russian spacecraft is scheduled to land on the south pole of the moon on Monday, part of a big power race to explore a part of the moon which scientists think may hold frozen water and precious elements.

"During the operation, an abnormal situation occurred on board the automatic station, which did not allow the manoeuvre to be performed with the specified parameters," Roskosmos said in a short statement.

You are the one writing love letters to Russia. I love the USA, not the government but the Country.

It crashed into the crater after the failed maneuver. Too funny. Putin can’t do anything right.

It reached the moon. The drunk Russian controllers crashed it into a crater in its final maneuver.

“ Looks #Fake to me. “

I have irrefutable evidence that the moon landings were faked.
I just feel like not releasing the evidence at this time.

Wow, you really hate the US don’t you.

The country didn't make the claim; some in government did.

Armstrong & Aldrin: "I don't remember seeing any stars," which was consistent with the high quality, Apollo 11 Hasselblad photo imagery. And yet, the Chinese camera had not trouble whatsoever seeing the stars which were always there. Faking the constellations was simply too difficult for NASA and/or Stanley Kubrick. If star positions were in error, the entire operation would immediately be seen for the fakery it was.

There's no moisture in the lunar regolith to allow or cause it to cohere, so as to confirm Armstrong's classic first footprint. (See below: cleats/heavy treads were hardly necessary inside the Apollo 11 module as it stayed within Low Earth Orbit.)

Armstrong's lunar footprints in dry, dusty regolith would have looked more like this (if they'd been real):

Did you just fall off a turnip truck? This has been explained to simpletons like you countless times over the years.

They can’t communicate with it until russia is facing the moon. They’ve been cutoff from using relays.

So if it’s crashed...

Russia watched it crash into the crater after they made their final maneuver.

Typical Circusmaximus. Nowhere in article does it say the lander crashed.

If you're not posting propaganda, you're just outright lying.
