Personally, I'm all for it. Competition is good for space programs. I
didn't know India had any thoughts of going into space. Not really the
country I'd pick as most likely to go to the Moon.


Launching satellites toward the Moon is no big deal. And China's dream of a
manned Moon base is more than 20 years away which is so far into the future
(politically speaking) that it might as well have been 100 years. I
personally think it's just a whiff of hot air, nothing more.
