Nobody gets to the moon by accident. If you’re a rocket scientist and know what you’re doing, Earth’s little sister ought not be such a challenging target. It’s huge — a whopping 2,155 mi. (3,468 km) across. It’s close — a mere 239,000 mi. (385,000 km) from Earthly launch pads. And if you take an as-the-crow-flies route, you can get there in just three days.

That's good??!
Anybody who thinks China putting a man on the moon is good is an idiot.
They will do it for one reason only-- to militarize the moon and claim it as sovereign territory.
They will build a base there.. how will you deal with that?
Imagine laser weapons based on the moon..
I'm sure they have the vision.
From a vantage point perspective,he who controls the moon controls the Earth.
11:39 nice Boushey reference ;)

11:32-I agree.Some countries can only be kept in check when they are desperately poor.With success and technology comes aggression and hostiliy.All space exploration technology credited to China actually originated in the US.The idea was to keep the exploration of space going while NASA experiences unprecidented budget cuts.The conveyance of info to them has of course backfired.China will seize any opportunity to have a military advantage.
