    More exploration is good!

    Might cause problems in the future, but for now I can appreciate the idea of more countries pushing towards space exploration! Big Grin

    I would think any attempt by North Korea would play out something like Kerbal Space Program lol

    Grats to China though, perhaps they can drive the rover towards one of the Apollo sites to shut up the non believers Tongue Out

    Naw, they will just say the images from the rover are fake. New fabrications by the government to keep us enslaved, yadda yadda.


    I am actually surprised. China is working on a space station and just put their first rover on the moon? Aren't they doing things out of order here?

    Not as cool as sending people to the Moon, but hopefully this will re-spark everyone's interest in space and other countries will start getting more interested in space exploration.
