10:20 GMT 25.08.2023 (Updated: 12:25 GMT 25.08.2023) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - On Monday, Russia's Luna-25 automatic landing module crashed due to engine malfunction during a transition to the pre-landing orbit.
Russia could send another mission to the Moon's South Pole in 2025-2026, as scientists are eager to continue lunar projects, head of Russian state space corporation Roscosmos Yuri Borisov said on Friday.
"Borisov stressed that Russian scientists 'are eager to continue the lunar project.' One of the options for continuing the program may be the possibility of repeating the mission to land on the South Pole of the Moon in 2025-2026," Roscosmos said in a statement.
