State Corporation “Roscosmos” published on its site Web site The first results of the work of scientific instruments on the apparatus “Luna-25”.
Currently, the automatic station “Luna-25” is in orbit of a natural satellite of the Earth. According to Roskosmos, during the flight several launches of scientific equipment created at the Space Research Institute (IKI) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) were carried out.
The state agency said the moment of impact of the micrometeorite was recorded during the analysis of the data. Saved by PML device [пылевой монитор Луны]It is designed to detect microparticles suspended in the air near the surface of the satellite and determine the parameters of the surrounding plasma.
In addition, the ADRON-LR neutron and gamma spectrometer recorded the most intense lines in the energy spectrum of the gamma rays of the chemical elements of the lunar soil. For the first time, the ARIES-L ion energy-mass analyzer was also turned on, which studies the near-surface ion exosphere in the Moon’s subpolar region.
On August 16, the Luna-25 spacecraft successfully appeared into the orbit of the moon.
On August 17, Roscosmos was stationed at the Luna-25 station. made The first photograph of the surface of a natural satellite of the Earth. Images were obtained using television cameras of the STS-L complex. In particular, the instruments were able to capture the south polar crater Zeeman on the far side of the moon.
Prior to this, it was reported that Russian scientists received. initial data From the instruments of the station “Luna-25” flying to the natural satellite of the earth.
On August 11, the first mission since 1976 was launched from the Vostochny cosmodrome as part of Russia’s program to explore the Earth’s natural satellite.
Ancient Russian scientists created Space engines powered by vodka.
