China has landed a lunar rover on the far side of the moon. What will happen because of this? How will other countries react?
When there are two massive bodies interacting in space there are five points where the gravitational forces balance out and it is easy to place satellites or space stations. These are the Lagrange points. China has a satellite at the L2 point for Earth and the moon. These Lagrange points are very important space real estate. There may be a new race to claim the other four.
Will countries ditch the moon treaty? Will China agree to allow access to their base and the L2 point? Will we see multiple bases and multiple claims at the end of 2019? Should we be worried about all this? Should we be afraid of the power of China?
Fasten your seat belts, get ready for launch … !
