They realize, don’t they, that we were already there almost 50 years ago....

My bet is the rover will veer into a crater and get totaled.

They realize, dont they, that we were already there almost 50 years ago.... How many more years until we're able to go back?

What they realize is that we’re not there now.

They realize, dont they, that we were already there almost 50 years ago.... And the Spanish had been in North America for a century when the English showed up....

"The launch is a key step for China to realise its goal of being the first country to send a probe to soft-land on and rove the far side of the moon," the state news service Xinhua quoted Zhang Lihua, the satellite project's manager
More research is better than less research, more competition is better than less competition. The next time humans set foot on the Moon, though, it won't be a nation-state sending them -- but they'll launch from US territory. Thanks Simon Green, and a ping to my old version of the APoD list and some other lucky people. :^)

They chose the Dark Side of the Moon so that if they crash, nobody would see it......................

We wasted 50 years. Pretty sad when one thinks of it that way. We can only blame ourselves for what China is today and not advancing on the landing on the Moon.

They realize, dont they, that we were already there almost 50 years ago.... 50 years ago, our money bought products made by American workers, who became tax payers that paid into our space program.
Now, thanks to these stupid free trade deals, our money buys products built by Chinese workers, which become tax payers paying into their space program.
Who still thinks this was a good idea?

In my day, a “Moon Landing” meant a MANNED moon landing.
Didn’t Amazon achieve its ‘Moon Landing’ a few years ago - delivering a package as a promotional stunt??
