I didn't know they have schools on the moon. Or was it a power station?

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.

Yeah, Russia should be like heckin' wholesome NASA and their peaceful apolitical former SS officers who never bombed any hospitals or schools instead.

Aww man…

I like it when space stuff works and when it explodes it makes me sad :(

(Unless there’s a billionaire on board)

Comments exactly what I expected. Disappointed how many people here are knee jerk celebrating the failure. Feels like being in a room full of Republicans when someone says anything about Mexico or Islam.

I hope they fix their shit for Luna 26 for the sake of science and human discovery.

Special lunar operation.

“This is all the West’s fault!”

What's the problem. It was a lunar lander. It landed on the moon. Mission accomplished.

Well, hopefully India has more success.

Obviously it was not a moon rocket, but a Drone aimed for Kiev.

The fall of the Soviet Union and its consequences for the human race

As someone fond of science, its kinda heart breaking as many people spends decades of work to make this stuff and their dreams get crushed when these fail. Hope they fix and launch another one.

The US should put a lander together out of trash for shits and giggles and have it land perfectly.

Aw man that sucks

Of course the BBC has to throw in that bit of kkkracker cope at the end. Nevermind how challenging a south pole landing would be relative to elsewhere on the moon.

:bathroom:

I always suspected that it was just a missile painted like a rocket.

It seems that a dish washer's controller isn't suitable for moon landing after all.

Good news:

moon's no longer haunted
