Chinese are at it again... (Shenzhou 7)

Task Force · 09-25-08, 04:53 PM

Us and europe have been there, done that.:rotfl:

Platapus · 09-25-08, 04:54 PM

Good luck to them and a safe return.

GlobalExplorer · 09-25-08, 05:07 PM

Yeah exactly what's the fuss about this anyway. The technology has been developed by others, 40 years ago, so China now gets a fairly safe and cheap ride with copied machinery.

Onkel Neal · 09-25-08, 05:18 PM

But just the same, it's not an easy feat at all: go China!

mrbeast · 09-25-08, 05:28 PM

Maybe 40 years late but like, Platapus and Neal have said, Good luck and go China!

Sea Demon · 09-25-08, 05:47 PM

What? Orbital flight? Spacewalk? Welcome to the early 1960's, guys.

Just kiddin'.

All joking aside, I wish these space travelers a safe and productive flight. Good luck China.

Dowly · 09-25-08, 06:19 PM

Have fun and call me the next time you going there!

Blacklight · 09-25-08, 06:25 PM

A few more years and they'll be on par with the Japanese manned space program !

Would you mind telling us what copied machinery the Chinese are using besides a Russian spacesuit?

The "fuss" as you call it is the admiration that the Chinese are taking their first steps into space exploration. It is a pretty cool thing and very good for the prestige of the Chinese people.

Also liiks like a japanease rippoff of that old power rangers Tv show. Feature japanease military?:hmm:

Actually, that was the show that "Power Rangers" stole footage from. All the fighting and giant robot action came from this show "Super Sentai". Just for Power Rangers, they creatively cut out all the "Super Sentai" plot and characters except for the fight scenes, made their own dumb stories and put in horrific American teen actors to play the "Super Sentai" or Power Rangers when they were out of uniform. All footage of them in Power Ranger uniform, the fight scenes, the giant robots, anything not shot with the teens out of uniform, was all edited out of Super Sentai and spliced together to make the "GO GO POWER RANGERS" action. (In my opinion.. that's stealing.. but hey.. that's just my opinion and I'm diverging from the topic)
