an Earth parking orbit after it was launched and was then sent towards the Moon. On 7 September 1971, it entered lunar orbit. The spacecraft completed 85 communications sessions and 54 lunar orbits before it was sent towards the <a href="/wiki/Lunar_surface" class="mw-redirect" title="Lunar surface">lunar surface</a> by use of <a href="/wiki/Braking_rocket" class="mw-redirect" title="Braking rocket">braking rockets</a>. It impacted the Moon on 11 September 1971, at 3 degrees 34 minutes N, 56 degrees 30 minutes E (selenographic coordinates) in rugged mountainous terrain. Signals ceased at the moment of impact. </p><p>This mission was the seventh Soviet attempt to <a href="/wiki/Sample_return_mission" class="mw-redirect" title="Sample return mission">recover soil samples</a> from the surface of the Moon and the first after the success of <i>Luna 16</i>. After two mid-course corrections on 4 September and 6 September 1971, <i>Luna 18</i> entered a circular orbit around the Moon on 7 September at 100 kilometers altitude with an inclination of 35°. After several more orbital corrections, on 11 September, the vehicle began its descent to the lunar surface. Contact with the spacecraft was lost at 07:48 UT at the previously determined point of lunar landing. Impact coordinates were 3°34' north latitude and 56°30' east longitude, near the edge of the <a href="/wiki/Mare_Fecunditatis" title="Mare Fecunditatis">Mare Fecunditatis</a> ("Sea of Fertility"). Officially, the Soviets announced that "the lunar landing in the complex mountainous conditions proved to be unfavorable."
