Default Chinese space station

http://www.space.com/missionlaunches...ns_031016.html

The Chinese have announced they will soon launch a space-lab and after that
a space station. I'm baffled what could be gained from this? There's hardly
any usefull science that can be done in space (except the eternal experiment
what happens to humans and all of God's creatures under zero grav
circumstances) that can't be done here on Earth.

Why aren't the Chinese smart and wise and planning to send a manned capsule
around the moon? That would be a *huge* PR stunt.
