Wondering how Russians feel about the success of Chandrayaan-3 after the failure with their Luna 25.

"Glorious Russian probe came second, decadent Indian probe came second-last"

(I vaguely remember there was a headline along those lines about a 2-way athletics event between the USSR and the USA)

The crash of Luna 25 disheartens me as an engineer, representing a substantial loss of effort and work. However, I'm pleased with Chandrayaan-3's success.

Russia has a wonderful space program with ability to reliably go to space and are one of the biggest contributors to ISS.

Setbacks happen, but I am sure that doesn't change how they feel about Chandrayaan-3
