In this handout photo released by the Russian Space Agency Roscosmos, a shot taken from cameras installed on the Luna-25 moon lander shows Zeeman crater located on the far side of the Moon near its south pole. Russia's Luna-25 automatic landing module has taken its first images of the Lunar surface that add to current available information about the crater, Roscosmos said in a statement on August 17. On August 11, the Soyuz-2.1b carrier rocket lifted off from Russia's Vostochny Cosmodrome and launched into orbit Luna-25, the first Russian lunar mission in almost 50 years and the first one in Russia's independent space history.
