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.


Oh soooo bewful King Monkey Grin

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.

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.


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. Wink

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.

15 February 1996      Xichang, China      6–100      Long March 3B.
A Long March rocket carrying the Intelsat 708 Satellite veered off course immediately after launch, crashing in the nearby village 22 seconds later, destroying 80 houses. According to official Chinese reports there were 6 fatalities and 57 injuries resulting from the incident, but other accounts estimated 100 fatalities.

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...
