Default China shooting for the stars.

Here's an interesting story I saw concerning China's space program.

http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/space/0...ion/index.html

The Chinese have announced that they will launch a manned space mission later this year. Currently, the un-manned Shenzhou IV, which is capable of carrying a human, is orbiting the earth.

I'm wishing them the best of luck. If the space race heats up again, maybe we'll be able to visit the Moon within our lifetimes.
