NASA Probe Discovers Crash Site of Russia's Failed Luna-25 Moon Lander

NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has captured images of a fresh crater on the Moon's surface, suspected to be the impact site of Russia's Luna 25 mission. The mission, which marked Russia's return to lunar exploration after 47 years, ended abruptly with a loss of communication just before crashing into the southwest rim of the Pontécoulant G crater. The newly formed crater measures about 32.8 feet in width. In contrast, India's Chandrayaan-3 successfully landed on the Moon on August 23, becoming the fourth nation to achieve this feat.
