With what's being done to the education system we'll be lucky if the average American believes the moon is real a few years from now.

Everyone knows it's just projected on the sky dome from Area 51.

I heard that this is the projection of a pizza used by elites that eat children's brains. Elite which is themselves a bunch of reptilians aliens. "This is known".

Why would we win? Are we even capable of having high end scientists anywhere?

my disappointment in my countrymen couldn't be bigger. it's ridiculous they will elect a known and nakedly corrupt con man simply because they hate brown children.

I'm visiting China right now. I was in the states a couple years back. If someone thinks that the US has any chance of winning this space race, even without Trump and his anti-science administration, they're just delusional.

Is the US trying to get back to the moon again? If so, why?
I'm more entertained by China absolutely spanking the US on EV and hybrid EV cars.

There was a NASA program to go to the moon called Artemis, which was continually pushing back it's date under Biden, and is now pretty much dead under Trump 2

I have no doubt that China will get people to the moon, but stay there? Long term habitation on the moon is an unsolved problem even conceptually, let alone the part where you actually have to build it

What's unsolved about the concept? It doesn't have to be self sustaining, and most of it is just engineering challenges that can be solved by throwing money at it.

After recent tests, China appears likely to beat the United States back to the Moon
