The Pravda report details Lunokhod 2’s 23 mile trek across Le Monnier Crater, laser ranging tests, iron and aluminum soil composition, and a two week Earth night cycle as it operated from January landing through May. It notes no direct correlation with Apollo 17 data and confirms mission completion.
