It started in '69 with Luna 15, and this was Luna 25, so less than 11?How many Russian spacecraft have crashed into the Moon since Sputnik?
India launched a Moon Impact Probe from an orbiter in 2008, and it discovered water on the Moon before the NASA device did.Technically they landed before India.
Apparently Luna 2 crashed on the Moon in 1959; in 1966 Luna 9 and 13 missions did their first soft landings and photographs of the Moon surface for the Soviets.. seems a fair number of probes have impacted the Moon and not just from US or USSR.. but also China, India, Israel and the Eurpoean Space AgencyIt started in '69 with Luna 15, and this was Luna 25, so less than 11?
