API VERSION: 1.2 API SOURCE: NASA/JPL Horizons API ******************************************************************************* Revised: Feb 26, 2024 Luna-25 STAGE / Earth -9901492 (PRE-COMPUTED) https://iki.cosmos.ru/research/missions/luna-25 NOTE: No further update beyond s19 is expected. Re-entry/impact at 50-km altitude is expected as follows: Time (TDB) Date (UTC) Lat. Lon. 2460367.2805689 2024 Feb 26 18:42:51.97 -12.208386 -167.417374 +/- : .0000052 0.45 0.000518 0.001734 (1-sigma) Footprint: major/minor sigmas (km) : 0.191 / 0.051 (1-sigma) major axis azimuth (deg): 98.604 This is about 400 km NNW of American Somoa in the South Pacific Ocean. Background: This is a trajectory for a rocket-body (booster stage) of the failed Luna-25 Russian lunar lander mission, launched 2023-Aug-10 @ 23:10 UTC, atop a Soyuz-2.1b rocket from the Vostochny Cosmodrome. JPL orbit solution #19 (D. Farnocchia) is a fit to 91 ground-based optical astrometric and photometric measurements spanning 2024-Jan-05 to 2024-Feb-26. There is more than a magnitude of variability in brightness reported by observers, so the photometric model is a rough guide only.
