    China lands on Mars in major advance for its space ambitions

    Musk is probably going to be the first large group there; they should destroy any Chinese presence there. China is a predatory nation that can't be allowed mastery of space or Mars. Or I should say China under the CCP.


    China lands on Mars in major advance for its space ambitions

    China landed a spacecraft on Mars for the first time on Saturday, a technically challenging feat more difficult than a moon landing, in the latest step forward for its ambitious goals in space.

    Plans call for a rover to stay in the lander for a few days of diagnostic tests before rolling down a ramp to explore an area of Mars known as Utopia Planitia. It will join an American rover that arrived at the red planet in February.


    China’s first Mars landing follows its launch last month of the main section of what will be a permanent space station and a mission that brought back rocks from the moon late last year.


    “China has left a footprint on Mars for the first time, an important step for our country’s space exploration,” the official Xinhua News Agency said in announcing the landing on one of its social media accounts.


    The U.S. has had nine successful landings on Mars since 1976. The Soviet Union landed on the planet in 1971, but the mission failed after the craft stopped transmitting information soon after touchdown.

    We should indeed shun all communiust advances on Mars.

    They should be relegated to mere Mar-shuns!

    China will advance in Space just like the Soviets. The people will starve and be treated like Slaves so the Party Elite can pull off stunts with stolen Capitalist technology.

    The new is the same old all over again....................

    We simply cannot allow China to stake a claim in space. The $ amount of minerals is too great

    China is going to be an important part of space exploration, exploitation, and colonization regardless of what Americans want or think or feel. Attacking Chinese government property anywhere, whether on or off Earth, is an act of war and an invitation to mutual destruction.
    Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak. And that it is doing God service when it is violating all His laws.
