The Luna-25 mission will seek to land near the south pole of the moon, collecting geological samples from the area, and sending back data for signs of water or its building blocks, which could raise the possibility of a future human colony on the moon.

    ITT: liberals trying to figure out how Russia is advancing in the NE, launching space missions to the moon, increasing domestic arms production, supporting the anti-imperialist coup in Niger, and improving its economic situation while at the same time Ukraine is winning the counter-offensive, Russia is using all their materiel, the sanctions are hurting Russia’s economy, Russia will collapse any day now, and Ukraine will never negotiate unless Russia surrenders in full.

      MSM/social media has done a number on us. The left on the democrat party is dead/dying. Bernie and AOC were the faces of the left, the stuff coming out about them is not good for the people that donated money/time to them.

    How is Russia shooting off moon rockets while engaged in war. NATO needs to up the ante and give Ukraine what they need to put the Russians under ground, not into space

      Honestly, I’m kinda okay with them spending money and resources on this. Better to spend resources doing this than building missiles and tanks. My only concern is that it may be serving a secondary purpose for testing new ICBM launch systems.

        Considering the R7 ICBM that this rocket is based off was first tested in the late 1950s I kinda doubt it’s of much concern

      We and our NATO allies are using Ukraine as we used the middle east and africa.

      Ukraine is a small country stuck in the middle of our war games.

      Our military companies will keep making money after the war building stuff back up.

      Off-topic. Please engage in the topic matter! You don’t need to make everything about the war.

        Sad reality is war has a big impact on a lot of our lives.

        We just don’t see the damages first hand due to them taking place elsewhere, takes time and learning to see what things are changing.
