NASA Head Bill Nelson says China can claim the Moon Policy.
“It’s a fact: we’re in a space race. And it’s true that we’d better be sure [Китай] he did not go anywhere on the moon under the guise of scientific research. They’re likely to say, “Don’t come close, we’re here, this is our territory,” Nelson said.
According to the head of the US space agency, such a scenario is possible if China wins this space race. He pointed out that the United States should send astronauts to the moon by 2025 – but expressed concern over how quickly China is developing space projects.
China denies similar claims by its American colleagues about the space race.
Formerly Russia and China signed Program for the development of cooperation until 2027.
