The Chinese government has been making bold announcements about the future of its space program — space stations Mars rovers Moon landings the whole shebang. And in addition to being of note space-wise the country's plans have some pretty interesting political implications.

中国政府对其太空计划的未来已经做出了大胆的预告：空间站、火星探测器、登月等等包罗万象。除了空间方面值得注意外，该国的计划还有一些很有意思的政治影响。

This part of the Chinese space program — the non-military part — has operated on two main lines of effort: a robotic precursor line to explore places and establish basic technological competencies and a human spaceflight line that is always trying to catch up with the robotic line.

中国空间计划的这一部分----非军用部分----分成两条主线运作：一条是机器人前导主线，用以探索空间，并建立基础的技术能力；另一条是人类航天主线，总是试图赶上机器人主线的进度。

I hope there is a new space race. If you have billions of dollars to burn a space race is always a better option than invading countries

我希望来一次新的太空竞赛。在太空竞赛中烧大把的钱也总比去侵略其他国家要好。

Obviously you are unaware of the militarization of space.

显然你没有意识到太空的军事化。

Testerty @Kent R26; 4 months ago
Yeap. With militarized space US can no longer hide behind 2 oceans while causing problems all over the world.

是的，太空军事化了之后，美国就再也没法躲在太平洋和大西洋的彼岸，同时在世界各地煽风点火。

Good post comrade.

说得好，同志。

So true. I recommend the documentary "Pax Americana and the Weaponization of Space." What is disconcerting is the party of military strength in a constant state of fear of existential threats cuts the NASA budget everytime. That is because their lo-ed white male base often say "what do'a need to know that fur." Democracy has it side effects.

非常正确。我推荐一部纪录片：”美国强权下的和平及太空军事化”。令人不安的是，那个痴迷于军事力量的政党（译者注：可能是指美国共和党？）对于存在的威胁有着永恒的恐惧，于是每次预算都拿NASA的经费开刀。因为他们的主要票仓 —— 那些受教育程度低的白人男性常说：“如此遥远的距离之外的事物有什么必要去了解呢？”。民主可是有副作用的。

It occured to me that I hadn't heard anything (since last year) about China's space station.

我突然想到自去年以来我都没有看到有关中国空间站的新闻了。

this is fantastic news. If we could send the whole Chinese Politburo to Mars then I will even make a financial donation. If they drop off the Russian government along the wayeven better.

这是个好消息。如果我们能把整个中国常委送到火星去，我会捐钱。如果能带上俄罗斯政府更好。

Banlas @Vlad Pufagtinenko R26; 3 months ago
It'll be even better if the f yankeys are all deported to any planet or even six feet underground for their crimes of killing hundreds of millions of innocent people around the world for the last few centuries until now. F murderers.

这个更好，那就是把扬基们都流放到其他星球或者埋到6英尺地下因为他们在近几个世纪世界范围内杀害无数无辜的人的罪行。全都是刽子手。
