[Nordberg]

We have already been to the moon!

What did our moon base look like? I must have missed it,

Well we did establish with a USA flag with a car there.

From Dutch gasbags post ....

More proof. Thanks!

There are six things that the LORD strongly dislikes, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

— Proverbs 6:16–19

You shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness. You shall not fall in with the many to do evil, nor shall you bear witness in a lawsuit, siding with the many, so as to pervert justice, nor shall you be partial to a poor man in his lawsuit.

— Exodus 23:1-3

"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

—  Matthew 22:37-39

I'm not feeling the love nor the honesty, Matt.

Question: Do you think they'll be able to do it? I asked because apparently their site runs on 56k modem.

It's fast, just has to go through all the government filters.

They are planning to establish bases on moon and maybe Mars. Have we ever done that?

Can you read?
Based on funding and plans, China will beat the US to the Moon and Mars.

Nothing said about a base the statement was this

The missions are meant to lay the foundation for a lunar research base and visits by taikonauts, as the Chinese call them, in the 2030s. So far, only the American Apollo programs have put people on the moon.

Future missions between the two countries will aim to bring back lunar samples and land the first building blocks of the base by 2030.

China is nearing completion of it's space station. Initially, the US had blocked China from participation in the International Space Station so China built its own. Like the US, China has offered to allow other nations to participate, which they are...as long as you can speak Chinese.

Based on funding and plans, China will beat the US to the Moon and Mars.

Totalitarian Governments establishing 'Bases', what could go wrong?
