  Luna 9 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On February 3, 1966 the Luna 9 spacecraft was the first spacecraft to achieve a lunar soft landing and to transmit photographic data to Earth.
The Luna 9 payload was carried to Earth orbit by an A-2-E vehicle and then conveyed toward the Moon by a fourth stage rocket that separated itself from the payload.
Luna 9 was the twelfth attempt at a soft-landing by the Soviets; it was also the first deep space probe built by the Lavochkin design bureau, which ultimately would design and build almost all Soviet (and Russian) lunar and interplanetary spacecraft.

 Luna 8 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Luna 8 was an unmanned space mission of the Luna program, also called Lunik 8.
However, the retrofire was late, and the spacecraft impacted the lunar surface in Oceanus Procellarum.
Without a full retro-fire burn to reduce approach velocity sufficient for a survivable landing, Luna 8 plummeted to the lunar surface and crashed at 21:51:30 UT on 6 December just west of the Kepler crater.

 LUNA Bars, 15 bars
LUNA was created to help women get more of the nutrients often lacking in their meal plans.
Soy-coated LUNA bars contain a small amount (2-3 grams) of saturated fat from FPKO, which in moderation fits into a healthy diet and is not a source of trans fats.
LUNA is equal in carbs, fat and protein to approximately 2.5 graham cracker squares with a tablespoon of peanut butter.

I ran the Prologue One at one-third power into 8 ohms from the 8 ohm tap for 60 minutes—not so much to thermally stress it, as I do with solid-state designs, but to make sure it was up to its working temperature.
The output impedance was very high, at 5.8 ohms from the 8 ohm tap and 3.1 ohms from the 4 ohm tap.

Luna 6 was launched on 8 June 1965, but the course-correction was not turned off correctly on 9 June causing the probe to miss the Moon by 161000 km and enter heliocentric orbit.
Luna 9 was launched from Baikonur on 31 January 1966 and was immediately recognized by all observers as another Soviet attempt to land an instrument package on the moon.
Luna 15, the first attempt to "beat" Apollo, was launched three days ahead of Apollo 11 and the media immediately saw a drama unfolding: The unmanned Soviet lunar probe with an unknown mission - but probably a lunar sample return - and the first attempt at a a manned lunar landing.

As befits a group thinking of (their own) empire, Luna revisits one of their best songs, "Astronaut." Like the rest of the album, here it’s leaner, stronger, and slower, while "Malibu" and "Owl" display some of the finest, melodic and stripped-down guitar playing since the Feelies’ heyday.
The conventional wisdom on Luna is that their artistic peak was around "Penthouse" or "Bewitched", and that their other releases are a mixed bag not as worth pursuing.
Luna may be calling it a day, but I will always have their recorded output to carry me into that witty, urban, romantic dreamscape that is the stuff of their greatest tunes.
