  1. Wasn’t it supposed to be a 2029 moon mission to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the PRC? Did I miss it getting pushed back to 2030?

  2. SpaceX needs to do the manned landing ASAP. Ideally the building of the moon base needs to start on the strategic locations before the Chinese manned spacecraft landing on the moon. Otherwise there will be disputes in future ownership and sovereignty.

  3. Good for them. Maybe it will give more motivation and funds to other space agencies in order to compete.
