The Great Game Changer: Belt and Road Intiative (BRI; OBOR)

[Aepsilons]

why is that funny?

Nothing. I Love You.

Muah, muah ! Thats my Christmas present to you ! My warm, succulent and moist kiss! LOL

Ugh, sounds horrible. It's December 22nd and the only "white stuff" I've seen is from a powdered doughnut.

LOL, no snow over there in Norway land? No snow back in Jersey, 'twas raining the last time i remember.

I know the feeling. Sven, Anna, the rest of his family (including his dogs and sister who's living with them), my family and friends, coworkers. I'm thinking about getting my purse therapy sessions for Christmas. It's feel abused.

Hahahahaha, awww, how cute. lol @ 'purse therapy' session.

Oh, wait I know what's missing. We lost @Armstrong !!!

Where is he? tis a fond farewell from our @Armstrong ? He leaveth us alone, on this dark , chilly solstice night....

Hahaha, i was just kidding, dude. Can't just laugh with me?

Speaking of the space shuttle, what Spacex accomplished isn't much more of a feat that what the Space Shuttle accomplished, except it was able to re-use a booster. What would be a feat, is if we could finally ditch chemical propulsion, and invest in technological barrier breaking propulsion methods i.e. Nuclear, Ion propulsion (VASIMR such as), and my personal proposal, gravity modification.

Smartest paragraph in this entire thread.

More investment will get better technology. I dont see any reason why china cant do it. I wish china invests more and does better. US is a benchmark bcos soviets went of the radar. But when soviets were around they were the best.

Wish china all the best, technology in particular space exploration is not a privilege of westerners alone. Those *** holes had the gal to ridicule india when they sent probe to mars.

Lol, are you serious? What's the point of wasting tax dollars looking at remote regions of outer space where things have been dead for millions of years (by the time the light rays reach Earth, those objects are no longer around)? Hubble serves no practical purpose whatsoever!

lol.......exactly how stupid are you??

You do know when you see a star, any stars in the sky, that's another sun (Which the astromatical term is star by the way) from another Universe. Your last line basically blasted all your creditability to smithereens.

I really doubt that US can do what they used to be able to do, US might be 50 years behind where they used to be today. The whole industry is losing sufficient fund. Money talks in the end.

lol.......you do know NASA budget is 12 times of CNSA budget right? (18.1 Billions in 2015 vs 1.5 billions for CNSA in 2014)

As with all my other space post. There are NOTHING MORE TO BE DONE on moon bounded by the current outer space treaty for NASA to expand, NASA have done basically all they can with the Moon and stratosphere between 1970 to 2010 with 170 space mission. Nothing more can be done unless US abandon the Outer space treaty. It basically a waste of money to send people to the moon for US as they will just go there, walk around and do nothing, as EVERYTHING had been done in the past 40 years before....

If US were to abandon the treaty tomorrow and start colonize the moon, US will have the technology to transport module and precisely land on any part of the Moon it desire, know where to set up the colony to enjoy the soil structure, know where to put solar panel to enjoy maximum sunlight, know where to desalinate so the drinking water will not be contaminated by Space radiation. Know the effect of "Moon-Light" which is different than on Earth.....Basically all that were done and ready and the only thing they need is the word "go" then they can colonize the moon.

NASA move on to other project, that does not mean they did not work at all. Like the NASA X-Craft, and the space probe. You have to be quite naïve to believe the NASA is going backward.....

No nation will surpass the American space program unless it puts a man on another planet before the Americans do. I can't see that happening though.

You can put all of the world's space programs together and they still will not come anywhere close the American space program.

By the way, NASA is finally getting a budget increase.

What I am saying that there are huge gaps in China's Space technology. Which means they are close behind US in some areas and decades behind in other areas. One example is that China can build Fifth generation fighters but lacks local engine technology to power it.

China is still at least 50 years behind USA in space technology but catching up quickly. China is now doing what US did in early 1960s. US astronauts landed on Moon on 20 July 1969 no other nation has matched that yet. The Space race in the 1960s was not about science but the superiority of ideologies. Now Space investment has to be justified.

Can you read your own writing? So now you denied you say China is 50years behind USA in space technology?

Federal agents raid NASA 2006

Federal agents raided a NASA office in Washington on Wednesday during a child pornography probe, accusing an agency executive of viewing and trading illicit images and videos from his home and work computers, according to a court affidavit obtained by an investigative Web site.

Seems the US need these scientist no matter what! Clear indication of Chinas threat.

The Chinese member indicated that China close to US in GPS technology and has its own satellites. I am talking about the China's gaps in space technology, US landed man on the moon in 1969 and no other nation has repeated that. It is the Chinese who are boasting their successes.

So much of your nonsense. Fake Pakistanis! So GPS is not space technology then is jungle forest?

You are talking to a guy who probably never been any higher than 30,000 ft in an airliner.

I thought NASA planned to build a station on the Moon? Europe and Russia have teamed together to plan colonization of the Moon, especially mine this Helium-3. China the same I don't think NASA would take a seat with all this happening.

We can also guess the many benefits for weapon's defence, medical science etc.

well.....you know, they think space is just like earth, they can do whatever they wanted disregarding all kind of restriction like weightlessness and radiation....

That is for Private Venture. not for government venture. The US government was bounded by Outer Space Treaty, but private company did not. Theoretically, if a Chinese Company can go to space, they can colonize anything and everything, same as any US company or any company from anywhere. But Chinese and US Government cannot colonize the space as per the treaty
