China's first lunar probe landed on the moon in a controlled collision Sunday, marking the first phase of the nation's three-stage moon mission, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported. The second stage involves sending a second probe to practice soft landings, the Xinhua news agency said. The mission will culminate with the launch and landing of a rover on the moon to collect mineral samples in 2012.    (source: edition.cnn.com)

I suppose it wont be long before the chinese send a manned craft to
the moon. Copy cats, or originators? Is it really possible? They/we
might have to rewrite the history books.Stay tuned space cadets.
