There is a reason they shot this up on an island in the Pacific rather their inland launch site near Mongolia. Of all things to get mad at the CPC at, this is pretty blatant trying to paint an enemy in a negative light to the masses. Love the Chomsky reference. While the CCP and Ping are a despicable regime this is just a media beat up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM_ Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I hope it lands somewhere (safely) in China, and then watch China deny it landed there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimito Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 (edited) Fear mongering. If you think you gonna be hit by this, go buy the lottery this weekend. The atmosphere is there, that's why we never had a fatality with human space junk. Satellites, space labs falling uncontrollably all the time. But no, it's the Chinese, must be dangerous! Won't land in Canada anyway, so you anxious people can relax this weekend. Be more worried about the damn virus.

But yes, fire crackers were invented in China. So you are correct. But after more than 2000 years, China is sending space probes to Mars. Technology is cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 It's not great quality, but an Italian Astrophysicist has taken a photo of the Core Stage of the rocket.... https://www.space.com/falling-chinese-rocket-debris-photo-white-house Also, I searched several sites and the predicted landing sites are literally all over the map....early predictions had it landing somewhere in the South Pacific and now we're seeing reports of the Atlantic and possibly even the east coast of North America.... The one thing that all these reports appear to agree on however, is that it won't land in China..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother I am critical of the CPC and Ping however I will let the information presented in these 2 articles speak for themselves. https://davidswanson.org/warlist/ https://thediplomat.com/2017/01/the-pivot-to-asia-was-obamas-biggest-mistake/ But hey western media tells us that China is the Boogeyman.

This thread seemed to be turning into a bash China thread. I suppose I am a bit sensitive on this subject as tensions between our countries have been escalating to the point that there was on Op-ed in the Global times about long range strikes against Aus. https://www.news.com.au/world/asia/china-advised-to-bomb-australian-soil/news-story/de4d171dd712250401d6b828a0543e34 As far as I am concerned Obama's pivot to Asia exacerbated the problems between China and it's neighbours in the Pacific. If you have read that article I posted from The Diplomat you will understand why I feel this way. If you do further research you will learn that the US has basically surrounded the bottom half of China with Military assets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
