Russia and India were engaged in an extremely close race to return to the lunar South Pole in August of 2023 .

India launched their probe 4 weeks before Russia but took a longer route.

Russia 's probe crashed while attempting to land.

Just four days later , the Indian probe would touchdown successfully.

Meanwhile, the Americans are training astronauts to go back to the moon in late 2024 or 2025 .

The first manned mission will last about 10 days , first lifting off and orbiting the Earth for about a day while checking its life support systems.

The spacecraft will fire its main engine to boost itself towards the moon.

It's then going to use gravity to bring itself and the crew back to Earth .

Starting in 2028 , if all goes to plan, these Artemis missions will land humans on the Moon regularly.

On Earth , the South Pole is defined as anywhere between 66.5 and 90 S, but on the Moon it's between 88.5 to 90.5 S.
