Russia could send another mission to the Moon's South Pole in 2025-2026, as scientists are eager to continue lunar projects, head of Russian state space corporation Roscosmos Yuri Borisov said on Friday.
"Borisov stressed that Russian scientists 'are eager to continue the lunar project.' One of the options for continuing the program may be the possibility of repeating the mission to land on the South Pole of the Moon in 2025-2026," Roscosmos said in a statement.
Borisov noted that the unfinished mission of the station does not put on hold the prospects for the exploration of the Moon.
"There is no need to make a tragedy out of this, we need to draw conclusions and continue working in this direction," Borisov said.
