🇷🇺 #OTD, on September 14, 1959, 65 years ago, the Soviet automatic interplanetary station "Luna-2" reached the surface of the Moon, becoming the first man-made object to touch another celestial body.

🌓 Launched on September 12 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, "Luna-2" made a journey that ended in the Sea of Rains region near the craters Aristillus, Archimedes and Autolycus.

🟣The "Luna-2" mission was the second most important event in the history of cosmonautics after the flight of Yuri Gagarin, demonstrating the advanced achievements of the Soviet space program. Major scientific achievement is the first direct measurement of the solar wind and confirmation of the Moon's lack of a significant magnetic field and radiation belt.

📆 #OTD, 303 years ago, on November 2, 1721, Russian Tsar Peter the Great proclaimed Russia an empire.

🟣The new status cemented the power of the young state in the eyes of the world community, which had a powerful regular army and navy and had emerged victorious in the Great Northern War with Sweden less than two months earlier.

📝 As a result of the Treaty of Nystad signed on September 10, 1721, Russia legally secured its return to the Baltic Sea lost two centuries earlier.
