Seeing so many upcoming lunar missions fills me with sadness on one side. Just more probing to eventually exploit the moon and strip it of minerals

Odd that there's no mention of Russia's Luna 25, but it lists India's mission that landed a couple of days later..

It lists significant events. I don't think they consider failures as significant events. However, landing near the south pole is. If L25 had succeeded, it would have taken the place of CY3.
