I would like to apologize for my rudeness in my first reply. But I have to point out that Tibet is closely related to China historically. TIbet is always a part of China in various dynasties.(except the Qing, in which we lost Hongkong and Macau. So there is no reason TIbet can be free from China. This is expecailly true given the rudeness and savegeness of the original governor Dalailama.without CHina,Tibetians will always live in their prehistorical way where cannibalism exists.

@D3adGoon The USA sitting on their ass, what about Russia? The US has been developing and building segments of the International Space Station, as well as multiple shuttle replacements that just didn't get funding. On the other hand, the 2 core modules of the Russian segment of ISS, Zvezda and Zarya, are remnants of the Salyut program (pre Mir), and the Soyuz first flew in 1957. I really liked the Orion capsule and I hope they still salvage it after Obama cancelled it. He is a prick.

@v12tommy I think it's more pathetic that the USA decided to sit on its fat ass decades after achieving such a feat. I hope China do send someone to the moon soon while the US looks on in humiliation as they rely on Russia for access to the ISS.

@v12tommy , na verdade eles so começaram a se preocupar com a exploração espacial agora, por isso fizerem isso decadas depois dos USA e URSS, senão era capaz de ja terem ido a lua!!! (dividindo despejas com a União Soviética claro para poupar)

lol, it took China until 2008 to accomplish what the US and Russia did way back in 1965. If they ever make it to the moon, I am guessing that won't be for another century or so.
