They'll probably stand on the shoulders of the comrade below and reach for the heavens. (or take the Long March 5)

Heres Hoping.

I hope they do.

Does it matter and, why?

The technology and successful methodologies for getting to the moon are pretty straightforward these days thanks largely to the United States.

Anyone can go to the moon if they are willing to spend the money. No big deal.

 

[koalabear]

Yes, they have already rented desert in Arizona.

 

[FGB]

Sure if they want to.

And they probably will.

Besides the New technologies they will invent they will learn how to use the existing ones better and cheaper.

 

[MNGuy]

I want them to go and take the lunar buggy out for a spin.

Put spoilers on it.

Why would they wish to go to moon? It has conclusively been proven moon is not cheese so no reason to go.

To mine precious metals.

Ancient Chinese rockets date back to at least the third century. In 228, the Wei State used torches attached to arrows to defend Chencang against the invading forces of the Shu State.

By the late 10th century, the Song Dynasty (960-1279) had mastered the art of using gunpowder in its rockets. Paper tubes filled with gunpowder and fitted with blasting fuses were attached to arrows. Later on, the gunpowder was carried directly inside the arrow. These high-speed weapons wreaked terror on the enemy.

For having such a huge head start it's about time.

 

[Recidiva]

Probably not all of them.

That would be cool if we woke up one morning and they were all just gone.

That would be a really impressive feat. I'd clap.

We could all spread out a little bit. Maybe give the Palestinians a piece. Japan could relocate to a slightly less radioactive suburb.

That wall has got to go!

 

[Benedict_Arnold]

Why not go? Nobody else has yet.
