My prediction...

Not only with the Russians pull this off, but they will cooperate with the Chinese to eventually land cosmonauts on the Moon as well - ahead of US plans.

Maybe what we need is a good ol' Space Race again - just so long as we don't abandon the Sol system this time.

      - I suppose they could leave behind a small lunar satellite that could do useful science, or drop some pentrators. - pwokenyaw - 8/11/2005 5:15:28 PM
