Luna orbiter
Luna orbiter. Model of a Luna 10 spacecraft orbiting module. This Soviet unmanned spacecraft was first launched during the Luna 10 mission in March 1966. It was the first man-made object to go into orbit around another planetary body. The same design was also used for the Luna 12 mission, launched in October 1966. Both Luna 10 and 12 spacecraft carried instruments used to study the Moon, transmitting data back to Earth on the Moons magnetic field, and the composition of its rocks

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a model of the Luna 10 spacecraft orbiting module, an iconic Soviet unmanned spacecraft that made history in March 1966. As the first man-made object to successfully enter orbit around another planetary body, it marked a significant milestone in space exploration. The same design was later employed for the Luna 12 mission launched in October of that year. Both Luna 10 and 12 were equipped with cutting-edge instruments dedicated to studying our Moon. These instruments transmitted invaluable data back to Earth, shedding light on crucial aspects such as the Moon's magnetic field and composition of its rocks. This groundbreaking research paved the way for further lunar investigations and deepened our understanding of celestial bodies beyond our own planet. The photograph not only captures this remarkable feat but also serves as a reminder of the pioneering spirit and technological prowess exhibited by both Russia and the United States during the intense Space Race era. It symbolizes humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and exploration beyond Earth's boundaries. As we delve into this historical snapshot, we are transported back to a time when scientific curiosity propelled us forward into uncharted territories. It stands as a testament to mankind's unwavering determination to unravel mysteries hidden within our vast universe.
