Luna-25 slammed into the moon on Aug. 19 during a maneuver designed to set up its touchdown.

The final resting place of Russia’s failed Luna-25 lunar lander has apparently been found.

Luna-25, Russia’s first moon probe in 47 years, smashed into the lunar surface on Aug. 19, during a maneuver designed to set up its touchdown try a few days later.

The crash blasted out a new 33 feet (10 meters) wide crater, which NASA’s sharp-eyed Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) likely found last week, agency officials said.

      tell me why. This is the flawless, fearless, borderline superior country that wants to conquer back most of europe and is actively invading souvereign countries, killing or locking up unwanted citizens and is failing at nearly everything it has touched the last years.

      Their economy is plumbeling down, their unemployment rate is sky rocking, their degenerated war has brought nothing but suffering and death all over the world and also into their own land and now their superior space mission failed spectaculary as some pieces on the surface of the moon.

      So tell me why we shouldn’t joke around that after all this propaganda from russia that painted their country as this nearly godlike and flawless entity? Please tell me why…

              that mean all russian are bad ?

              did I fucking say that?

              This is not Putins war alone, he is backed up by a lot of russian people who actively support his cause, mildly support his politics or don’t care at all (which is basically the same)

              Of course there are also people who are afraid to speak up, but they are not the majority in this country. Putins raise to power was also backed up by many russians and they a pretty much doing the same thing that nazi germany was doing before and during WW2…

              So please stop saying that this is only putins fault…the hate for the west is very real and very deep in russia’s society.

              And you can fuck right off with your blatant whataboutism. Of course are other wars or invasions not justified, but this does not make the russians one justified…

          As long as Russia is the enemy, russians are the enemy.
