Why are the chinee getting a pass? Because they look more like the Greys?
More like the amount of American technology they have stolen (or been sold) is stunning.
Please note: The tech in 2001 A Space Odyssey (except for the mission to Jupiter and HAL 9000) was exactly what was on the drawing board when the Apollo program was cancelled due to politics. Arthur C. Clarke was very careful to make it reasonable (except for the advanced aliens).
What is the time frame for the USA landing on the moon again, and what is the prognosis for the USA lasting that long?
Or maybe NASA will survive the fall of the USA as the Soviet space program (sort of) survived the fall of the USSR?

Let’s go back to the year 1492. Spain did not send an expedition north to the Arctic because there was nothing there of value. It would be a waste of resources.
I feel that same way about the Moon. Yes, some fancy gadgets can come out of the program. But in general it’s a waste of resources.
Does that make me cranky and shortsighted? I don’t think so. I’d like to say more, but I’ve got to tell some of the neighborhood kids to get off my lawn.
Mining the moon has little or no potential for return on investment.
Maybe Elon will save us.
Why are we concerned about that? We are woke and have ‘equity’ that is all that matters.
Could it be because the mission of NASA is to make Muslims feel better about their goat-raping ways instead of spaceflight?
“...The progress they’ve made has been stunning — stunningly fast....”
Thanks to our pioneering technology., they have.
Instead of going to the moon, why don’t we secure our border?
America’s Deep State is under China’s Influence. There isn’t any American Vision anymore. Worse yet, most Americans are too stupid to notice.
The moon?
We need to go to Planet Claire.
Well we got em beat in genderfluid astronauts no doubt! We got that one.
So what? Let them waste money. Just because they waste money doesn’t mean we should.
“”If they set up infrastructure there they could potentially deny communications, for example. Having them there doesn’t make things easier. There is real concern about Chinese meddling.””
Meddling? This is something we will have to deal with. We don’t own the Moon and other countries will explore it. Heck we deserted it roughly 50 years ago.
Let China go to the Moon. It’ll help deplete their GDP because there is little benefit. Too much fine grit there that gets into everything, as the USA discovered. Much better to build a space platform that will enable us to get to Mars. We will eventually mine the Moon for minerals, but we can take our time over decades. Going to the Moon will bankrupt the Chinese.
after being directly responsible for chinas growth, now our gov is going to act concerened?? what a friggin joke...
Bill Clinton gave all of our rocket engineering to the CCP for money to get elected for his second term.
...when at least two sets of American Apollo eyes (both Armstrong and Collins) back in 1969 were unable to see any stars (through their glare-visored helmets, of course). It's beyond curious--and into the realm of a typical and complete Deep State hoax--that the Apollo low earth orbit faux astronauts so confessed when a lying camera would show otherwise.
Another official Apollo image shows unmistakable, undisclosed evidence of 1960s vintage cut-and-past image manipulation when high contrast gets adjusted. (Or perhaps such manipulation accidentally covered up some stars, eh?):
The image below shows two images implicitly claimed to have been taken within the time interval of less than two hours--with no costume change back at the LEM. Yet, Aldrin's PLSS suit shows multiple changes. This is accompanied by several other anomalies incompatible with the official narrative.
Bzzzzzt! fail!
Can we finally admit we were entirely defrauded by Deep State NASA with the Apollo pretend-we're-more-advanced-and-can-beat-the-Soviets-while-we-let-the-Deep-State-launder-our-money project?
We better watch out for China, period.
