Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Please be forced to ask China for help it would be so fucking hilarious.
China's space program is doing so much better than the west, it's not even close, btw.
Reminder that US congress made NASA cooperation with China illegal, but that didn't stop us from having the fucking audacity to request access to lunar samples acquired by Chinese missions.
I mean, CNSA hasn't done anything particularly new or revolutionary in terms of space travel. It's a lot of LEO stuff with reused Soviet gear that isn't anything that hasn't been done before. It's a faster timetable than the west but it's not like the US or Soviets in the 60's.
That's selling things a little short.
They made a few improvements but at the end of the day, it's just a redesign of a LEO capsule. Their lunar work is interesting but the program isn't doing much that hasn't already been done.
