Professor Stooke mistaken over Soviet moonmobile
The Ontario University professor Phil Stooke, who announced a few days ago that he had spotted the Soviet moon rover, Lunakhod, on NASA new photos of the Moon, is mistaken, the RIA-Novosti news agency says citing Mr. Alexander Bazilevsky, one of the participants in the Soviet Lunakhod program. He says a dark spot on the map is just a part of ground the rover touched as it was moving to and from along its route. He also contested Mr. Stooke`s words that the Lunakhod had been missing for 37 years. Mr. Bazilevsky says nobody had ever lost it. Lunakhod-2, was flown to the Moon by the Luna-21 automatic station on January 16th 1973. It remained operational for four months and transmitted over 80,000 photographs to the Earth over the period.
