The 37 years old mystery of the long lost Russian Rover has been solved by leading Lunar Sleuth Phil Stooke a professor at University of Western Ontario. Disclosing the discovered track he said, "There is a black dot where the track stops and that's the rover itself".

Stooke found the first remote controlled rover Lunokhod 2 after the release of data including images from Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) by NASA on Monday. These details gave extraordinarily specific details of the surface of natural satellite of Earth, carving way for re-discovering the tracks by the help of searchable database that Stooke installed.

Stooke explained, "We can see where the rover measured the magnetic field, driving back and forth over the same route to improve the data".

He also claimed that the place where the rover landed was clearly visible and while struggling to get out, it covered its heat radiator with soil, which because of overheating had stopped functioning. A dark spot that could be seen at the same place is the rover itself, he said.

NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter is a one-year exploration program and intends to construct a widespread map, investigate regarding resources and possible secure landing sites.
