While i was on the topic of China, i just cldn't help mention that China has had a successul mission to space. They also plan a manned mission to Moon soon and create a space station on Moon by 2020.
US & Russia both have landed on Moon previously in an attempt to outsmart each other and wasted bilions of tax payers money for no real gains. Though they did setup international space station, they did not do it on Moon, which led to the speculation that there are aliens on moon already.
Come to think of it, setting up a space station on moon, should be easier than having a space station that is orbiting like satellites right?
If China does infact setup space station on moon, will they proclaim the land on moon as theirs. Space tourism will be a great revenue maker in the time to come and surely China would want a pie out of that.
But this will be a problem for people who have already bought land on moon. Apparently there are companies that are letting people buy land on moon and even sending them certificates of ownership. Gimme a break. Actually i want to know what is the current real estate price there.
But China isn't alone. It takes more than one fool to have a race right. India is launching its own mission to space soon called chandrayaan. I know people would argue that this is a display of our technological innovation(or russias?) but i just have one thing to say. Feed all first. Still got an argument?
But this is nomore a country thing, the popular payment processing company papypal's former co founder, started a company called spaceX, which had its first successful run in space recently.
Everything is ok, i mean China wants land on moon, good, they need it. Actually we need it too. Its ironical, Canada has so much land, no people, India & China have so many people, no land.
I just hope they dont find lot of natural resources there, specially radioactive material. If they do, two things will happen.
1. Moon will be abused to get all its natural resources.
2. Moon will becoming the dumping ground for radiactive waste.
And like we always do, we would not realise the implications of this on the enviorment till its too late.
But this is not the worse that could happen, i mean China loves cutting of access right? What if it cuts off our access to moon light?
Update: Did you know Google Inc. has moon contest of 30 Million Dollars?
