Orbital motion is an independent motion to daily rotation which is why the analogy of an outstretched arm continuously pointing at a centre is roughly why we see the same side of our orbiting satellite and why the Chinese lander will remain out of sight.

Achievements in engineering do not equate to astronomical achievements no more than the invention of a car affects the motions of the Earth so the gap is presently at its widest as commentators this morning announce a spinning moon along with its orbital motion.

The lunar day/night cycle is a consequence of its orbital motion alone, its divisor seen from Earth being an orbital trait just as the Earth's divisor is. Whereas the Earth turns to the Sun in two distinct ways, one due to intrinsic rotation and the other as a function of the planet's orbital motion with the Polar day/night cycle in isolation and the seasons in combination with daily rotation being the outcome of these dual surface rotations.

To hear these people talk about 'tidal locking' is a symptom of astronomical oblivion even when the engineering achievement of putting a lander on the side of the moon that doesn't face our home planet is actual.

China will put a missile base on the Moon?

Well, considering American put a man on the moon 49 years ago, and the Chinese just put a probe on it, maybe in FIVE HUNDRED years they'll have a base.


Back than cost $7 billion to put man on the Moon, crazy Kennedy!
US prints money like nothing!


It was a remarkable achievement, won the space-race and probably hastened the end of the Cold War because the Soviets realized they would never have the money to keep-pace with the U.S. technologically. Plus, the spin-off technologies were massive. Compare that to the s--- that is the ISS, $180B and next to NOTHING to show for it.


That's why I'm right, US print and waste money like crazy! During the cold war US spend $400 billion on it's defense, Soviets $200 billion.
Now days US spends $600 billion, next year Trump increase it to $716 billion, but Russians spends only $68 billion. China spends lately $200 billion.
Allies like France, England spends less than $50 billion each!
All the countries in the world, all together spend less many on defense than the US alone.
LOL!

Which of course is impossible. One single country - any country - in
the world must spend less on defense than all countries combined. The
sum is greater than any of the parts, you know, at least as long as
all parts are positive numbers...
