Description
The world’s most populous nation views space as an asset, not only from a technological and commercial perspective but also from a political one.
The repercussions of this ideology already extend far beyond Washington.
China vs. the United States explores future Chinese aspirations in space and the implications of a looming space race. Dr. Seedhouse provides background information on the fifteen-year history of the China National Space Administration and its long list of accomplishments.
Sino-U.S. technological and commercial interests in space are discussed, including their interest in encouraging a potential space race.
The national security objectives of the U.S. and China are also examined.
