I have been to China. I have seen massive cities undergoing massive transformations; new high-rise buildings are springing up like mushrooms and everywhere is the hum and hustle of a burgeoning economy.
It's no wonder with all this new wealth, Chinese investors would turn their attention to the most "in-demand" thing ever: Space travel.
Spacedaily.com is reporting 10 astronautic companies have seen shares rise seven percent in a week on news of the successful launch and recovery of China's second and third taikonauts and the purchase by a Chinese businessman of the first ticket to Space for a Chinese civilian.
I believe it's a moot point that China may one day threaten US superiority in Space--because in my opinion, they have the superior program right now.
We still can't launch a darn thing....
