China Space Walk, Docking Planned
The Chinese are making very good progress with their space program. I don't know a polite way to put this, but has anyone else noticed the fact that their plans have them landing on the Moon a year before our brain-dead CEV project does? I bring this up because of the fact that the Chinese are taking baby steps in their space program, while we have decades of experience with our space program, but to see how the Republicans are screwing up our progress you'd never know it. I mean do the Republicans really plan on outsourcing the Mars mission to China, because they seem to be more serious about exploring the Universe than we do. It's literally a disgrace that the nation that finally won the space race is being shown up by the newbie on the street. Von Braun is probably spinning in his grave because of how badly the Republicans have screwed up his dreams for the Space program.
Read more over at Space.com and Wikipedia for the moronic CEV program.

Shame on the US. We had such potential. All lost so we can die.
