Are the Chinese serious about human space flight? Most definitely. And they are interested in doing more than simply going to low Earth orbit. They are headed for the moon.

For most of last year, the Commission on the Future of the U.S. Aerospace Industry looked at our nation's position relative to our global competition. Clearly, the Europeans are determined to challenge our preeminence in commercial aviation, and the challenge to our leadership in space is coming from the Pacific Rim.

This is IMPORTANT. But I don't expect a nation that refuses to see the dangers in unrestricted illegal immigration (invasion) will have the sense to see the threat losing the moon will bring.

Nope. We're in trouble, and as usual, we'll pretend it's not a problem until we're locked out or attacked.
