Russia's Luna-25 in race with India's Chandrayaan-3 to become first in reaching Moon's south pole

Russia is likely to clash with India's Chandrayaan-3 launching Luna-25 to reach the south pole of the Moon, media reports said.

The launch is likely to take place this week.

Russia is undertaking such a launch almost after 50 years. This will be Russia's first launch since 1976.

The launch will be taking place four weeks after India sent up its Chandrayaan-3 lunar lander, which is scheduled to reach the Moon's south pole on August 23.

Roscosmos, the space agency of Russia, has outlined the timeline for Lune-25 spacecraft, reports said.

Roscosmos has said the two missions, Luna-25 and Chandrayaan-3, will not collide as they have planned different landing areas.

"There is no danger that they interfere with each other or collide. There is enough space for everyone on the moon," Roscosmos has been quoted by various media.
