The unmanned craft was due to make a soft landing on the Moon's south pole, but failed after encountering problems as it moved into its pre-landing orbit.

It was Russia's first Moon mission in almost 50 years.

Russia has been racing to the Moon's south pole against India, whose Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft is scheduled to land on there next week.

No country has ever landed on the south pole before, although both the US and China have landed softly on the Moon's surface.

No report on whether or not Russia was attempting to use repurposed anti-ship missiles like the ones they use to attack schools and hospitals here on Earth.

Oh noes, China has billionaires! I wonder if they are doing anything about them...

I was taught Catholicism from preschool up to highschool. Hell I'm no longer catholic, but the institution and the state that it serves is principally catholic because it pushes this "education" unto the general public.

Same goes for China, due to it propping Marxism and Marxist education in it's institutions because of it being a Marxist state. If it were capitalist and owned by capitalists, it would take the path of the US and spread anti-communism within it's population.
