#Luna25 "Disturbing signs" were noticed even before the attempted transition to the pre-launch #orbit, but the decision to postpone the maneuver was not made, scientist, leading researcher of the Institute of #SpaceResearch (IKI) of the #Russian Academy of Sciences #NathanEismont told RIA Novosti. "There were problems, they were not that significant, but the signs were, so to speak, alarming, but everyone hoped that it would somehow be dealt with .... The problems were, I'll be careful to say, there are things that are calculated and things that are off par.... If we have a deviation turns out to be slightly higher than we expected, it is a disturbing fact, but apparently it was not disturbing enough to move to a radical solution" https://ria.ru/20230820/luna-1891116639.html
