Not that I'm opposed to other races enjoying the same abilities as the western world, but any thoughts on this as China continues to grow in terms of power?

I think it is a real shame that conquering space must be viewed as a competition rather than a cooperative venture. If space is to be the salvation of mankind, are we going to be better off saving only one group, or all of the species?




hmmmm.......maybe not the best argument for cooperation. :rolleyes:

I see China, sending ship after ship of chinese kids to make it to mars, until they actually are the first people to land on Mars. After all they have an endless supply of people and money!

Put it this way: when I saw the Chinese, communist flag waving over the earth, I thought it rather fitting.

I saw a Chinese restaurant in my town, actually there are 4 of them.
