No one cares if the Japs hitched a ride to space on the NASA rocket. If a Viet hitched a ride to space on a NASA rocket doesn't mean Vietnam the country has the ability to put a man into space.

Manned space capability is the most difficult and the most prestigious.

Man into space.
Man on the moon.
All about manned space missions.

There are only 3 countries that have independently put a man into space, Russia/Soviet Union, US and China.

Until Japan puts a man into space, it will remain a space joke.
 
Epsilon is not far from an ICBM !
Just a political decision ... :drag:

What if americans call you a space joke ... they landed on the moon ! :meeting:
 
I cannot say anything about Diaoyu, because I cannot find it anywhere in world map ...
just found Senkaku island in old map.
lets dont talk about it.its also a big barrier between chinese and japanese besides the history:-)

Did they really?

China is behind the US but still in the tier 1 space powers.

Japan is irrelevant as an economic, military and political power.

We've already addressed the cost(s) by designing and launching the more affordable Epsilon 1 space rocket:

Looks like a ICBM to me
 
Just a funny joke compared to mighty China with our massive 3000 nuclear warhead arsenal and DF-41 armed with 3 x 1 megaton warheads or 10 x 120 kT warheads :)

Bringing back human being alive means you have reentry vehicle technology. The RV, laser ring gyroscope and graphite epoxy shell are the most difficult missile technologies.
 
Rockets with the range of more than 300 km counting as strategic technology & transferring such a technology banned by MTCR !



But as we don't give a single shit about MTCR ... you can count on Iranians help ! ;)

That would be disturbing for China. Vietnam able to send a missile at Beijing in a couple of minutes, not enough time to respond.

Of course we did. Land on the moon and check the American flag, should still be standing. Unless China can send an unmanned unit to Mars like we did, stop spouting BS.
