The angle at which the picture was taken prevents the kind of accurate measurements we want, IMO we need a satalite pic from the top since this kind of pictures taken from an extreme angle like this one could easily cause difference of one or two meters.
China’s next aircraft-carrier will be its biggest
Jul 1st 2021
Jiangnan shipyard lies on an alluvial island at the mouth of the Yangzi river. It has grown rapidly since it moved there from nearby Shanghai in 2009, churning out destroyers, icebreakers and landing craft for the Chinese navy...
it will definitly be launched in this year within the next few months (not near the end of this year) , they probably already have the 2,4 or so large modules that are needed to close the two holes pre-built so closing them probably wouldn't require more than 15-30 days, installing the catapults...
China plans to launch first crewed mission to Mars in 2033
China aims to launch its first manned mission to Mars in 2033 and build a base on the red planet in the following missions, according to the head of the country's major rocket manufacturer.
Wang Xiaojun, head of the China Academy of...
if China manages to send a crew to mars in 2033 that would probably be the biggest slap in the face of not just the US but the entire west.
the US didn't allow China on the ISS for fear China may get access to it's technology, if everything goes according to plan for China eventually the US will...
there is nothing wrong about the title, it's the same title that this Al-Jazeera article that I shared used so no why the F would I change it!
if you mean to say you think that Al-Jazeera itself is mistaken and is spreading false news because you interpet what Wang said to mean that their won't...
China plans for first manned mission to Mars in 2033
China plans to send its first crewed mission to Mars in 2033, with regular follow-up flights, under a long-term plan to build a permanently inhabited base on the Red Planet and extract its resources.
The ambitious plan, which will intensify...
personaly I have always been neutral on the Aghan issue (because it doesn't affect me), but if I was an Afghan I would definitly support any one over the Taliban any day.
I mean the Taliban stone women to death! they are savage people unfit for the 21st century.
unfortunately for the Afghans who...
I'm sure this wasn't just one guy's dicision and instead it was made after discussions between all the generals and shipbuilders about what will be their strategies and what they can or can't build.
frankly I believe many (or perhaps most) of us here have significantly underestimated just how...
While what most people think of when talking about space programmes is humans colinizing space thousands of years from now but IMO the main benefit from these developments is military, the militarization of space is inevitably and it is and was happening even before the US created the space...
so what are the new president's policies?
just a brief discription if possible with the important details such as what he will do with the nuclear deal negotiations.
just saying that he is a "hardliner" is not enough.
are you drunk or something? what does your post even mean you are just throwing insults and that's it. do you also act this much uncivilized in real life or is it just on the internet?
This kind of news is always blown out of proportion, they say ADIZ as if it's the same thing as airspace, it's not.
Actually Taiwan's ADIZ extends over the Chinese mainland over a good portion of Fujian province so even if a PLAAF aircraft flys over Chinese mainland it would be reported as...
IMO it's highly unlikely it had anything to do with money since China has all the money they want to spend and we do know they will probably build a CVN in this decade, instead it was probably just for the sake of time because the PLAN needs to have carriers as soon as possible, if they would...
they may aquire the ship I guess in 6-8 years however significant delays or outright cancelations are not a rarity in Russian weapons development programs so I will only believe they will build this ship when we actually see it in a drydock.
I assume this "super Gorshkov" will use the new...
