NASA saying China going to the moon to "own" the moon!

Nelson said by 2035, China will complete the construction of its own Moon station and will launch several lunar missions. The top NASA official acknowledged that the US space administration has, in fact, been “very concerned” about China’s landing on the Moon and its agenda of hijacking the Moon.

Zhao emphasized that China has always advocated the peaceful use of outer space and opposed militarization and an arms race in space.

China has been actively developing its national space program in recent years. On April 29, the country began the construction of the multi-module Tiangong orbital station and successfully launched the Tianhe core module. The station can simultaneously accommodate three cosmonauts or six people during a crew change.

Are we behind the Chinese in the space race now?  Have we been so wrapped up in idiocy that we are losing out to a nation that has kept its nose to the grindstone, worked while we sleep and is focused on its goals that we're two laps down in a 4 lap race?

I love America.  

I am American.

But I hate Americans.  We are so fucking pussified that we let the stupid become important and let the important become ignored.

We are losing and most of my fellow citizens don't even know it.
