  • A. Luna spacecraft
    The Luna spacecraft were a series of Soviet robotic probes launched between the late 1950s and 1970s that achieved many lunar exploration firsts, including the first human-made object to reach the Moon and the first soft landing on its surface.
  • B. Ranger spacecraft
    The Ranger spacecraft is a fictional advanced space vehicle featured in the film "Interstellar," used for planetary exploration and piloted by astronaut Joseph Cooper.
  • C. Moon Impact Probe
    The Moon Impact Probe was a small Indian lunar probe designed to detach from the Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft and intentionally crash onto the Moon’s surface to conduct scientific measurements and demonstrate landing technologies.
  • D. Selenological and Engineering Explorer
    Selenological and Engineering Explorer, also known as Kaguya (SELENE), was a Japanese lunar orbiter mission launched by JAXA to study the Moon’s origin, evolution, and surface in unprecedented detail.
  • E. Viking Orbiter
    Viking Orbiter was a pair of NASA spacecraft launched in the 1970s that orbited Mars to map its surface, study its atmosphere, and support the Viking landers.
