The victory is the clever name of their space station "Heavenly Palace" instead of a mundane name like the USA's ISS.

So the Chinese chose a beautiful name instead of military or bureaucratic name like ISS.

I think I've been to a Chinese Restaurant named Heavenly Palace.  The sweet and sour pork was OK but the Mongolian lamb was better. Bit too much MSG tho.

So it's back to religion and emperors?

No international co-operation with the USA, Europe and Russia - why is that?

You can polish a turd but its still a turd. I for one would not want to be in  space inside a Chinese made piece of junk with no warranty.

This has the prototype module with solar panels and take-aways.

i'm sure they did.

hitler may have won WW2 if he pinched the T34 design

The OP premise is a laugh! China has a major PR victory in space...

Always how it looks to westerners first with the Chinese regime is it?

Except for recyclable turd machine.

First make turd in bowl... When done the business, press compressor button that send turd through heavenly-magic box of secret Chinese herb and spice... edible turd extracted from hollowed ivory tusk at other end... Mix with hot water and let infuse... Drink at leisure.

You've got a good point there... Only backwards...

How do you think all those Nazi SS rocket scientists got a pass to reside in the US?

I wouldn't even accept the warranty. 3 days or 3 miles? If it explodes how far are the body parts spread?

Everyone had rockets, jets and nukes to some extent in WWII. Nazis were the most dangerous at it but fortunately Hitler was Fuhrer.

The V2s were more of a psychological weapon than a weapon of mass destruction, for the effort the Germans put into manufacturing them they caused little damage and mostly on civilians.  But it was retribution for attacks on German cities by the allies.

It seems they used 30 tons of spuds for the alcohol fuel when food was getting short.  Total war?

Oh soooo bewful King Monkey ;D

Only the CCP don’t believe in heaven.

So Buddha is not impressed.

"According to a survey of religion in China in the year 2010, the number of people practicing some form of Chinese folk religion is near to 950 million (70% of the Chinese). Among these, 173 million (13%) claim an affiliation with Taoist practices. Furthermore, 12 million people claim to be "Taoists", a term traditionally used exclusively for initiates, priests and experts of Taoist rituals and methods."

Xi could be a Muslim high-roller at Crown Lager Casino and vote himself Leader of the communist century, even as emperor with no clothes.

The Chinese will get sick of space when they discover there is no endangered wildlife to eat there.

Your ignorance aligns you with Valkie.

Deaths in space and training are mostly Americans. No Chinese.



Quote:

As of 2020, there have been 15 astronaut and 4 cosmonaut fatalities during spaceflight.[1][2] Astronauts have also died while training for space missions, such as the Apollo 1 launch pad fire which killed an entire crew of three. There have also been some non-astronaut fatalities during spaceflight-related activities. As of 2020, there have been 30 fatalities in incidents regarding spaceflight.

That's what happens to those at the leading edge. At the trailing edge - not so much. ;)

Yeah, nothing to do with the USA being the most prolific country in space travel (3 times more than Russia and 100 more than all other countries combined) and forging the new tech for China to steal/copy.  China's first manned space flight was not until 2003, 43 years after USSR/USA

But you being the stupid wanker you are just love to find fault with the USA.

poor old Laugh Cos I'm a Loser. can't use google. Plenty there - it is from 1996.

There are also stories of  Long March 4B and 5B crashes.

Maybe Golden Rain is a better title for their space station...  I assume, of course, that everything it does is peaceful and has no military applications....

12.09 pm - Heavenly Palace Strikes First... Judgement Day... Golden Rain Begins...
