Re:Start another space race? (Score 2)

I don't think the fact that they have little experience will have much effect. If they can launch succesfully, then they can start doing just about anything. If they could get the funds together, then China would be even more inclined to start colonies on, say, the moon, what with their overpopulation. Plus, if they get more friendly with Russia, mabey russia will put some launch stations in China, and do a joint project, making Rusia's easier and cheaper, due to the launch lattitude.
