does the Chinese new moon mission proves China is near to takeover the USA and Russia in space technology?

answers:
Tom S say: They are catching up, and it seems to be more of a priority for them right now, but "taking over" not just yet, no.
-
goring say: not at all
-
Adullah M say: Since China is not being an Imperialism as of the Western World of being Neo- Colonization or Neo-Crusaders ,then China would move forward in her advance Technology in all fields, especially in Space Technology to promote World Peace and Justice for all mankind, in order to end up the next World wars and proxy wars that Western World are being eager and active in this field ,to obstruct the advancement of China in all fields. So to take over the USA and Russian in Technology is not in her mission.

Ronald 7 say: They have definitely taken their first step
-
tham153 say: They are definitely catching up with both, having their own space station, and planning manned lunar landings followed by a permanent manned base
-
quantumclaustrophobe say: Not really... we contemplated landing a manned mission on lunar far side almost 50 years ago when the Apollo project was under way; In my view, China's mission(s) remain eclipsed by the what the US and Russia did a half century ago.
-
MARK say: No, China is not as advanced in this area as the USA. It is, of course, in the process of catching up and it may one day be ahead. However, China is not conducting this mission alone. There are, for example, instruments on board to do tests for a German institute. They are also testing whether the far side of the Moon can be used as a base for a radio telescope that would not suffer interference from Earth. Whilst the Chinese will no doubt take pride in their achievement the mission is being done in co-operation with others.

Eric say: There is no "space technology" and anybody who disagrees with that is just a gullible fool. If you don't believe me, then answer this: It's claimed that the Soviets were the first people to launch an object into "Outer Space", right? Then, later, they claimed to have launched a human being into orbit. And the Americans claim that they were the first to land people on the moon. They say that they accomplished this feat half a dozen times, yet no one has repeated it in 46 years. The same country claimed to have gone half a dozen times in 7 years, all during the tenure of the same president, using 60s and 70s technology, yet nobody has ever done it since. Why?
Because technology has advanced to the point where people won't be fooled again, so they can't risk it. Nothing has ever been more than 10 or 12 miles from the surface of the Earth. Spaceships, artificial satellites, astronauts, it's all nonsense, it's science fantasy.
The other day there was a news story about how a Dutch astronaut accidentally dialed the American emergency number, 911, from orbit, and that the call connected. When pressed, he said that calls he makes from orbit go through "about 70 percent of the time." Yet Nixon got the astronauts on the phone from the White House on the first try decades before mobile phone technology was available. Yeah, sure he did.
And why did the Soviets/Russians give up on their dream of making it to the moon? Nobody knows who made the first successful crossing of the Atlantic - the French, the Irish, the Norse, but we do know that news of Columbus' success didn't deter other countries from doing it, it spurred them on to do it. So why didn't anybody else make an attempt? Answer that.
NASA readily admits that they LOST ALL of the telemetry data from the lunar missions. How idiotic is that explanation? They lost it? That's like somebody ascending Mount Everest and then saying "I lost all my maps so I can't remember which route I took to the summit." If it was so easy the first time, I'm sure you could figure it out again. Especially considering that nearly 5 decades have passed. Imagine the leaps and bounds made in those areas.
They claim that they've launched thousands upon thousands of artificial satellites since the dawn of "the Space Age." Yet there are no verifiable pictures of one satellite capturing a photo of another satellite. And all of the footage is indistinguishable from Hollywood space footage.
Why do space shuttles veer off over the sea when they blast off? Wouldn't it make more sense for them tohead straight up? They say that these rockets need to hit 24,000 mph to break Earth's gravity, so next you'll tel me that they're hitching a ride on the wind to pick up a bit more speed, right? No, it's because that arc takes them beyond the horizon, away from prying eyes where they can either land safely in the sea, on a ship or at another location. Isn't that obvious?
Look at where airplane technology was within a few years of the first flight. Now look at "space technology." Imagine if people were crossing the Atlantic like it was going out of style in the 1920s and then all of a sudden the government said "Sorry, everybody, we forgot how to do do this, but you know what? We proved that we CAN which is the most important thing. So maybe we'll get around to it again somewhere around the 1970s or so, but don't hold your breath..." And you idiots are still holding your breath.
Imagine if they told you that pilots could not traverse the Atlantic, but that they could launch unmanned capsules that could... And imagine if they told you that they do this regularly, without any issues, and that they maintain continual contact with these objects, and can even maneuver them remotely... Wouldn't you think to yourself "Well then why can't a human being go along for the ride?"
The highest mountain on the surface of the Earth has been climbed by over 100,000 people. Yet the first verified ascent was only 50 years ago. 100,000 people have stood at the summit of Mount Everest in the past 50 years. Not many people have been down to the depths of Challenger Deep and not many people have stood in the deepest man-made hole ever dug which only went down 8 or 9 miles into the belly of the Earth. Yet they claim that dozens of people have been to space and that a dozen people walked on the moon.
Why is it that no one has been compelled to win the respect and admiration of humanity by accomplishing what the Americans claim to have accomplished 6 times 50 years ago? Imagine how much prestige it would net North Korea or India or Brazil or Iran, not to mention Russia or China, to be able to say that they've done the same.
The silly news story about the Chinese probe actually went on to say that they had planted POTATOES in the lunar soil. Straight out of that ridiculously campy book by Andy Weir, planting potatoes. On "the dark side of the moon" where there's no water. And no oxygen. Potatoes. And you people actually see these news stories and aren't compelled to burst out laughing uproariously? What's your secret?
Hold on, let's get back to the satellites for a minute... So, there are all these artificial satellites in orbit around the Earth, right? All these satellites, some of them suspended in what they call "Low Earth orbit" and people claim that they can actually BE SEEN WITH THE NAKED EYE. Then, there are other satellites which are in elliptical orbits around the Earth, some of them for years and years. So how is it when these space shuttles launch and start to get up to these ludicrous speeds, let's say 24,000 miles per hour, how is it that they avoid these objects as they leave the atmosphere? I mean, they're travelling at 24,000 miles per hour and they can't perform evasive maneuvers, right? And we can't predict where all these thousands of objects are going to be at any given moment because the Earth is spinning at 1,000 miles per hour, meaning that it would take them a full 24 hours at 22 miles up (nearly DOUBLE the height of any VERIFIED person or object, and let's keep in mind that summiting Everest would put a person at roughly half the verifiable height), but satellites in Low Earth Orbit can complete their circuit in as little as 90 minutes.
So explain how these shuttles whizzing along at 24,000 miles per hour manage to miraculously find a safe path right through this field of thousands of satellites that are all scattered across the sky, some of them 150 miles up, some of them 22,000 miles up, yet never, not once, ever has any manned or unmanned space craft managed to collide with an object in space. Ever.
In the late 1800s there were only 2 automobiles in the entire state of Ohio (over 40,000 square miles), and the drivers of the two cars actually managed to collide with one another. Yet thousands of satellites have gone up over the course of 60 years and never once has there been a collision. Absolutely miraculous.
And of course you have viable explanations for why NASA would and does admit that they DOCTOR EACH AND EVERY PHOTOGRAPH of the Earth from space, because (and I quote) "They have to be." (doctored)
It's so easy to ridicule people, to dismiss them without addressing any of their points, to claim that their theories are too ridiculous to merit rebuttal. But we all know that it's because no one here CAN refute these things. All you can do is regurgitate nonsense that doesn't stand up to common sense or even the most elementary scientific scrutiny.
If I'm wrong, if I'm truly wrong, convert me. I invite you to provide me with evidence that I'm certifiably insane. It's obvious that I'm not a fool. I write well, I'm well spoken and organized. I understand complicated concepts and I can do complex mathematics. Numbers don't frighten me. So give me what you've got. Come at me hard with your best, your most irrefutable punches.
You're all cowards and empty headed buffoons who don't have the brains or the spine to take me up on that.

Raymond say: No.
But it does prove that they are on a positive curve and MAY reach the same level (maybe surpass it... but that is still many years away).
Like the USA, they do have plans for some kind of a base on the Moon. Unlike the USA, they are actually doing something about it.
China was excluded from participating in international space programs by... the USA. That is why China is now on its own... and eager to prove that they should have been included from the start.

YKhan say: Sending robots to space is standard practice these days. Space technology supremacy really requires being able to send humans to space and back safely.
-
poldi2 say: Yes, it does.
-
steventtw20 say: I think China's new moon mission just a normal progress in space program. However, compare to US and Russia's recession in space missions, China's normal progress likes a big leap forward.
In fact, human being's recent year progress in space program is astonishingly bad. US is supposed to be the leader of space technology in the whole World, but 2019 is already the 8th year US cannot send astronauts to space by her own spaceship. Although Russia is the only nation can send astronauts to space regularly, Russian's space program just remains the ability of launching astronauts. China only develops space program with steady pace, this makes an image China may take the lead in this sector.
-
Adam D say: How many people have they put on another celestial body?
5 man-made objects are on a trajectory to leave our solar system - how many of those were launched by the Chinese space agency?
How many nations have successfully landed and operated science missions on the surface of Mars?
China is improving their program all of the time, but they've got a long way to go before they are anywhere near the USA when it comes to space exploration capabilities. And you have to have the political will to do expensive things - this changes every few years.

Nikki say: yes, first china conquers the moon, and then the universe.
wonderful achievement, a living rover on the dark side of the moon. wonderful idea, with tremendous scientific
value.

Zardoz say: It's something we didn't do. It is not something we couldn't do.

CarolOklaNola say: No, but China and Russia are YEARS ahead on cyber warfare
