I wonder if they'll actually make it to the Moon this time around?

Are you suggesting those Russians are incapable, or just stupid?


Just incapable, since they never made it up there in the 1960's. This
would be pioneering work for them, as they've never had any *nauts touch
down on another heavenly body yet. They've just gone up and down from
near-Earth orbit, or they've launched unmanned explorers and satellites.
