Russia returns to the moon. The launch of the Luna-25 spacecraft, which will break the half-century pause of Russian flights to the Earth's natural satellite, is scheduled for October 1, the Izvestia TV channel reports. The station was presented at the Lavochkin NGO. The mission's lander will be tested in the Earth's atmosphere. The systems will be tested for resistance to temperature changes. The main goal is the world's first landing in the circumpolar region with difficult terrain and poor visibility from the Ground. "Luna-25" will study the properties of the soil, illuminating it with a neutron detector to a depth of 60 cm. And in 2030, Russia plans to land astronauts on the moon.
