MOSCOW (AP) Russias Luna-25 spacecraft crashed into the moon after it spun into an uncontrolled orbit, the countrys Roscosmos space agency said Sunday.


The pilotless spacecraft was aiming to be the first ever to land on the south pole of the moon, an area where scientists believe there could be important reserves of frozen water and precious elements. It had been expected to land Monday.


However, Roscosmos said it lost contact with the Luna-25 on Saturday after the spacecraft ran into difficulties and reported an abnormal situation .


The apparatus moved into an unpredictable orbit and ceased to exist as a result of a collision with the surface of the moon, read a statement from the agency.
