50 years ago, the "Lunokhod-1" set off on its almost one-year journey on the Moon, becoming the first device of its kind outside the Earth.
For the Soviet space program, it was an important milestone that demonstrated the technical achievements of the USSR of that period.
During the long months of its work, the Lunokhod explored significant areas of the Moon's surface, carried out various experiments, and investigated the issue of the machine's operation in an unfavorable environment for a long time.
In general, this is one of the landmark achievements of the national space program. The overwhelming majority of the Earth's countries will hardly ever boast of what our ancestors did 50 years ago.
