"Russia's Lunar Probe Returns to Moon's Orbit, Marking Historic Milestone"

Russia's Luna-25 moon probe has successfully entered the moon's orbit, marking the country's first lunar mission since 1976. The spacecraft will circle the moon for approximately 5 days before attempting a touchdown on August 21. The mission aims to search for frozen water on the lunar surface, but its significance lies in the political competition between superpowers like China and the USA for space dominance. This mission, administered by Roskosmos, is unique as it plans to land on the moon's south pole, a previously unexplored area. The success or failure of this mission will set the tone for future Russian space endeavors.
