China has outlined plans to build an orbiting science lab by 2023. The “Heavenly Palace” station will house six people and serve as a test bed for experiments on astronomy, technology and more. China hopes to build the spacecraft over the course of 11 rocket launches, reports SpaceNews. Once operational, China’s lab will rival the International Space Station (ISS) built by space agencies from the US, Japan, Russia, Canada and Europe. The ISS has orbited roughly 250 miles above Earth’s surface since 1998 and also serves as a space environment research laboratory. Jianping’s announcement comes shortly after the China National Space Administration (CNSA) launched its newest rocket earlier this month. The Long March 5B is designed to carry large payloads into low-Earth orbit. Launch of the new station’s core module on a Long March 5B could take place in early 2021, Jianping said. A model of the huge module was displayed at an airshow in Zhuhai, China in 2018. As part of the 11 missions, China hopes to launch two experiment modules, four crewed spacecraft and four cargo vehicles. A number of international scientific projects will take place on the station, from astronomy to research into deep space travel. According to Jianping, a total of 18 astronauts will be plucked from the People’s Liberation Army Air Force. Training has already begun, SpaceNews reports. President Xi Jinping has prioritized advancing China’s space program to strengthen national security. The country has already sent two space stations into space – Tiangong-1 and Tiangong-2 – though only Chinese astronauts boarded them. The US Defense Department has highlighted China’s increasing space capabilities, saying it was pursuing activities aimed at preventing other nations from using space-based assets in a crisis. China insists it has only peaceful ambitions in space but has tested anti-satellite missiles.

The first of these will take place next year, Zhou Jianping, chief designer of China’s human spaceflight program, said at a conference in Beijing Tuesday.

Sure it was: Flashback: Bill Clinton gave China missile technology As president, Bill Clinton essentially wiped out any strategic advantage the U.S. had by selling advanced U.S. missile technology to our enemy, the People’s Republic of China. That “administration’s voluntary release of all the secrets of America’s nuclear tests, combined with the systematic theft of the secrets that were left as a result of its lax security controls, effectively wiped out America’s technological edge,” David Horowitz writes in the recently published, The Black Book of the American Left Volume 7: The Left in Power: Clinton to Obama. Unlike the administrations that preceded it, the Clinton administration accepted millions of dollars from the military and intelligence services of at least one hostile foreign power. All of this was done in exchange for illegal campaign contributions from a massive totalitarian country determined to eclipse the U.S. as a world superpower. President Clinton also lifted security controls, allowing thieves to access other vital military technologies, while disarming his own side and opposing needed defenses.
Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen. EXACTLY !!!! Instead of being impeached for a BJ, Billy Bob should have been charged with TREASON !!!! Of course, he was just doing the bidding and furthering the agenda of his masters at the CFR !!! Got to bring about the NWO doncha know !!! But he got away with it, just like Hillary has, and like Obutthead and the others will, because they are all IN THE CLUB !!! Of course, one has to remember that it really started with Nixon and Kissinger. They were the ones that "opened up China " to bring them into "the civilized world ". Of course, you can even go back to WWII, when the Chinese leaders were communist Mao, and pro west Chiang Kai-shek. The CFR already had their hooks into the War Dept, Treasury Dept, and the State Dept. They cut off Chiangs supplies, and gave the support to Mao, as they preferred a pro communist China. Chiangs legacy is today Taiwan. If the CFR had not been in control of the War Dept, Treasury Dept, and the State Dept, today we might not have a Communist China, Communist N Korea, Korean War and Vietnam War may never have happened ! And a lot of Americans would not have died !!! The " Deep State " as some like to call it, goes way back. And is responsible for many of todays problems !!! Regards Stoner

Uh-huh. And that's as far as they'll get.

The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning.
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.
