CTOnews.com August 20 news, the Russian Luna-25 probe was scheduled to enter the final lunar pre-landing orbit today (August 19), and then try to land around Monday (August 21), but there was an accident: "in the course of operation, there was an emergency on the automatic station and could not maneuver in accordance with the specified parameters."

Although the Russian space agency said the team was analyzing the situation, the agency reported that preliminary data obtained from the lunar mission contained information about chemical elements in the lunar soil, according to the Associated Press. And its equipment has recorded a "micrometeorite impact".

CTOnews.com got the latest news from the Russian space agency Roscosmos official Telegram: according to the preliminary analysis results, due to the deviation between the actual impulse parameters and the calculated values, the Luna-25 probe deviated from the design orbit and collided with the moon, and it no longer exists.

Hours before the accident, the Russian space agency reported some "anomalies" about Luna-25. Roscosmos said the probe encountered unspecified problems while trying to enter the designated pre-landing orbit.

The Russian space agency said a specially established interdepartmental committee would deal with the issue of clarifying the reasons for the disappearance of Luna-25.

Luna-25 was launched on August 10 and reached lunar orbit six days later. It is expected to land near the moon's south pole as early as Monday. The lander carries eight different scientific instruments and plans to look for water ice and conduct various studies in this strange Antarctic region that has not been explored by a lander or rover.
