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

 via Eurasian Times

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.

FBI & MI5 to coordinate in effort against Chinese

Just don't know if the current FBI is up to the challenge. China is hard and I'm not sure the FBI still is.

I hope I'm wrong but the whole Russia dossier, the Jan 6th thing and going even further back the Boston bombing fiasco just has me wondering if they're up to the job.

Basic Recon Course is trippin'...But I like it!

WHAT? Power generation issues in MN?

Energy crisis starting in Germany

We're seen blackouts in California. We've seen brownouts on the East coast. We've seen gasoline shortages. I don't think I've ever seen a modern Western country suffering under an energy crisis. This should shock the masses. I wonder how long German citizens will whistle while the country metaphorically burns?

UK's turn in the bubble...WTF is going on with all these resignations?

Purely symbolic. There are more than a few people that would gladly fill those positions. You can't stop bureaucracy.

Well that didn't go as planned + what is a razvedchiki?

13th MEU BLT ACVs Conduct Range 400

Kinda curious why they haven't re-worked the ranges at 29 Palms. They fit the mold of the old Marine Corps but don't seem suitable at all to distributed operations. Quite honestly the current framework doesn't do the job at all. They're gonna have to spend big money to sweep and clean them. Then they're gonna have to expand each one....BIG TIME. Additionally I don't get the work on urban warfare. SIF/EABO is much too light to conduct any type of urban warfare. Too light for any type of mech warfare too. No one is talking about it but this formation appears to be vulnerable to motorized/mechanized/armored conventional forces. It truly is a one trick pony.
