Comment on "Launch to pave way for space station" (China Daily, Sept 21)

Photographs from space have confirmed the moon-landing site. There is nothing in physics that prevents mankind from landing on the moon or coming back from it. It is just a matter of cost.

China's space program will continue to attract the best scientists to work in China. In the longer term, the planet will have to be shared fairly between its many varied inhabitants. That is mankind's destiny.
