For some reason, this made me think of the show #firefly where most spacecraft had kanji signs and manuals and even the common vernacular featured Chinese swearing. Is Hollywood our modern-day Oracle of Delfi? 🧐

@arstechnica The concept of a moon race, from that I read in the article, makes me feel like someone would want to claim the moon as their own. At first, it sounded silly to me. Then I realized this is exactly what happened to Earth...

Huge LOL to a race to own the moon. I would just let the moon be: unowned. Next up- who owns Mars!?

@arstechnica I suppose this is only a payload, but otherwise this seems possibly the first unmanned ship/payload launched from the moon to earth. Is it?

@arstechnica I think we have more important concerns than the 'moon race'.

(checks article to make sure it wasn't written in the 1960s)
