China and Russia are building a lunar research station, possibly on the moon’s surface, marking the start of a new era in space cooperation between the two countries. A statement by the China National Space Administration Wednesday said the International Lunar Research Station would also be open to use by other countries. No timeline for the construction of the station was given.
Good. More competition in space should further encourage the scientific and economic development of cislunar space.
Fantastic! Competitors! Hopefully we will see some private investors jump in aswel.
The Chinese can do it for really cheap. They just stand on each other's shoulders and pass the station up.
Great comis on the moon to. We really need to amp our space exploration and sciences before we loose orbital control to comunists.
