The trials of the high-precision landing system for Russia’s Luna-25 lunar mission expected later this year have been successfully completed, the state-run space corporation Roscosmos has said in a statement.
"Despite sanctions, trials of the high-precision landing system for the Luna-25 automatic station have been successfully completed," Roscosmos said in a statement, issued after its Director General Dmitry Rogozin’s meeting with members of the expert council.
In November, Roscosmos press service told TASS that experts had identified an error in the Doppler speed and distance meter (DISD-LR), intended to ensure a soft landing of the Luna-25 interplanetary probe. A rocket and space industry source later told TASS that "the device was unable to show correct data during a descent from a tower."
