China has its own space station, and it's newer and more advanced than the ISS.

The last time the US had an operational space station all of its own was 1979.

Edit: I see nasezero had already mentioned it, heh.

Edit2: Fuuuuuu---I'm about to start up Kerbal Space Program now.

The last time NASA brought samples back from the moon was 1972, China just brought their second batch back last year.

China is cratering the cost of Moon rocks. But at what cost?

Also, China's moon rocks are extra special because they're from the far side, where NASA never brought any rocks from
