Russia’s space agency Roscosmos, which launched the Luna-25 on Friday, has said that its landing on the moon would not impede India’s Chandrayaan-3, which was launched on July 14, 2023, as the two missions had different landing areas and there was enough space on the Moon for everyone.
Luna-25 was launched from Russia’s Vostochny spaceport in the country’s Far East region on August 11, 2023. Its lunar lander is expected to reach the moon on August 23, the same day on which Chandrayaan-3 is expected to land on the lunar surface too.
