The space race is on. That’s why Starship has been launching so much. Someone at the FAA must have finally realized that if SpaceX doesn’t go ahead at full SpaceX speed, we’re gonna see China take over space.

They’ve got a space station and a rover on the moon. China will easily overtake us in space, has already in a few places.

True. China is making rapid gains in territory and influence on Earth and Luna, and soon plans to expand its operations into the Belt.

And by "take over" you mean uselessly posture and dick waggle and colonialize in brand new space accords breaking ways.

This is not something anyone is winning.
