Luna-25 Crash / Russia's dream of conquering the moon again broke... How did Russia's Luna-25 crash?

Luna-25 Crash: Sunday was a very disappointing day for Russia. For the first time after 47 years, cherishing the dream of 'conquering' the moon, Russia got a big blow when its moon mission failed. On Sunday afternoon, the Luna-25 mission crashed on the lunar surface and in this way Russia's dream of reaching the moon was shattered. Russia, once known as a superpower in space, has now lost its empire. After the failure of Luna-25 mission, these things are getting raised even more.

Officials of Russia's space agency Roscosmos said that the unmanned Luna-25 spacecraft lost control and collided with the lunar surface. On Monday, Luna was to make a soft landing on the moon, but it crashed before it could be done. Luna was to land on the south pole of the moon. Till date, no country's space agency has landed its spacecraft in this part of the Moon. Let us know how the Luna-25 crash happened.

How did Luna-25 mission crash?

Roscosmos told that Luna-25 was an unmanned mission. The lander sent under this mission was to land on the lunar surface. But before landing, he became uncontrollable and collided with the surface of the moon. The space agency says that the lander went into an unexpected orbit. Then it was damaged by hitting the surface of the moon. This is how Russia's moon mission failed.

The space agency told that there was a problem in the spacecraft even while sending it into orbit before landing on the moon. Contact with the spacecraft was also lost on Saturday. Roscosmos said that Luna had to face an unusual situation. In such a situation, it was clear that there would be trouble in landing Luna on the surface of the Moon. This thing became clear on Sunday, when Luna crashed.

Why is Russia lagging behind in space?

The failure of Luna mission is like a big setback for Russia. Due to this, it seems that the space program of Russia is slowly going to hell. In 1961, Russia did the feat of sending the first man in space as Yuri Gagarin. But now he is not able to focus much in space. The biggest reason for this is that instead of focusing on the space program, Russia has now started investing money in the army. Money is being spent like water to prepare weapons like missiles, drones.
