Chinese runaway space station will crash to Earth within months, expert warns

One giant leap for China, many great jokes.

China's moon rover Jade Rabbit died. Fear not however cause it wuz brought safely back to earth and sold to a junkyard owner in Arkansas at cost.

A Chinese guy with spirit and daring got away with this tweet to the controlled Sina Wiebo. He said he compared photos of the Apollo landing in 1969 and the CCP moon rocket probe Jade Rabbit that's been scaring martians since 2013....

"During the Apollo landing, the moon’s surface was in good order, the roads are good quality, and the tire tracks are clear and distinct. The moon around the Jade Rabbit is messy and chaotic, with rubble everywhere, and the road is covered with million-year-old dust that hasn’t been tidied up."

In CCP run China that is a daring stroke of humor and sarcasm that survived the obviously moonstruck censors.

Chinese Junk circa 2013

The Jade Rabbit rover is named after the pet of mythical moon goddess Chang’e which is the name of the rocket that delivered rover, er, Jade Rabbit to the moon. Trouble is Jade Rabbit has had more breakdowns than Charlie Sheen.


The official Xinhua news agency, which broke the news of the Jade Rabbit's troubles, published a "first-person account" from the rover that appeared geared towards softening the blow.

"The bad news is, I was supposed to go to sleep this morning, but before I went to sleep, my masters found some mechanical control abnormalities. Some parts of my body won't listen to their commands.

"But if this trip is to end prematurely, I'm not afraid. The sun here has fallen, and the temperature is dropping fast. I'm actually not that sad. I'm just in my own adventure story, and like any protagonist, I encountered a bit of a problem.

Goodnight, Earth. Goodnight, humans."

Good grief.

Actually one of my favorites is a dump called Hoi Ming in Sayville NY. It's exactly like the late 60s era Chinese restaurants where the waiters wore red and black jackets and bowties that my parents used to take us to on payday.

Yutu (Chinese: 玉兔; pinyin: Yùtù; literally: "Jade Rabbit") is an unmanned lunar rover that formed part of the Chinese Chang'e 3 mission to the Moon. It was launched at 17:30 UTC on 1 December 2013, and reached the Moon's surface on 14 December 2013.

On 31 July 2016, Yutu ceased to operate after a total of 31 months, well beyond its original expected lifespan of three months.

The odds of that are actually quite low.

Also most of it doesn't "land" at all, just burns up on reentry.

I consider myself reasonably informed in respect of the permitted public knowledge of the mission secrets and the CCP Boyz in Beijing.

As noted by Wiki,"The planned landing site was announced to be Sinus Iridum.[25] However, the lander descended on Mare Imbrium, about 40 km (25 mi) south." Which is not bad for a heap of purloined junk finding the moon.

The long and the short of it is that rover the rabbit didn't rove...

On 25 January 2014, near the end of the second lunar day, China's state media announced that the rover had undergone a "mechanical control abnormality" and stated that the problem was caused by the "complicated lunar surface environment".[37] Specifically, the rover suffered a control circuit malfunction in its driving unit.[42][43]

Command Control was expecting the rover to contact Earth on 12 February 2014 had it endured its second lunar night. Since it did not transmit any signals, it was declared permanently inoperative.[44] "The temperature on the Moon is considerably lower than our previous estimation," meaning that, "certain components may be suffering from "frostbite".[53]

Yutu was unable to move its solar panels back to the insulating position during lunar nights. With each night, some capability was lost.[55] [56] The subsequent science data became very limited as the NIR spectrometer and the ground-penetrating radar were limited to always making the same observation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yutu_(rover)


So there's nothing like doing the identical or same thing a thousand times and get praised for it. I just wouldn't place much on the non-roving rover rabbit having sent the identical data a thousand times while immobile during virtually its entire miserable service life on the surface of the moon. The current assemblage of Chinese space junk will end up much the same, i.e., except in a thousand pieces.

Au contrare: It is a point of view and perspective supported by the body of facts -- many of 'em.

It is not always a tweet equivalent. Repeated a thousand times from the vacuum of space.

The useless one night stand service life of the autistic moon rabbit and this contraption thingy menacing us from the heavens are a pathetic joke. The haphazard Chinese junk degrading downward reminds us of the miserable failure of the inert and rote rover jaded rabbit.

It illustrates also why we know from history that dictator tyrants can appear to be competent until they prove by their own grandiose stupidity that they are in fact desperate and malevolent pretenders.

We know you hate China and will take any opportunity to laugh at their expense.
 
If there's a dead space-man with a cryogenically-suspended mutant Tardigrade on board when it lands we need to get in touch with David Bowie ASAP.

Many people in the advanced world are laughing at the CCP Boyz in Beijing while others react with an indignity that betrays only themselves. The thread is in fact a succession of contemptuous statements mocking and ridiculing the dictator-tyrants in Beijing. Yet you see only one among the very many.

CCP are a serious dictatorship of tyrants in a long line of tyrant rulers who are the true believers in absolutism.

The People's Armed Police are 850,000 paramilitary police in 48 divisions garrisoned in each province to provide the CCP rulers with their needed domestic security force. The PAP are the Party's Gestapo. PAP gets a bigger budget than the armed forces do because the enemy of the People's Armed Police and the CCP are the Chinese people, to include the people in the places the CCP occupies.

The guy at the left holding the bag doesn't have a violin. It's the ones in the helmets behind the front ranks to watch out for.


CCP Boyz in Beijing are but another dynasty of emperors who in the 21st century wear business suits. CCP is a young dynasty trying to build itself on the rubble of past dynasties so it is a nervous dynasty. Every Chinese dynasty fails inevitably as the current CCP Dynasty will fail. We see the failure of dictator tyrants extended beyond the earth's atmosphere. It's in the blood so to speak.

The above has nothing to do with the space program...

CLUE: Take a look at the list of Moon missions.... Look for Chinese failures. You won't see any.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_missions_to_the_Moon

CLUE: Take a look at space stations.... Look at life spans of the Tiangong vs. others. Not bad considering it was their first effort.

I do not respect anything about dictator tyrants nor do I trust 'em. Neither does the Congress.

In 2011 Congress enacted the expressed prohibition of NASA working with the CCP Dictators in Beijing citing known instances of CCP espionage against NASA and the United States space defense satellites and programs.



New Report Finds China's Space Plans Threaten U.S. Military Ability

China is developing space technologies aimed at blocking U.S. military communications and destroying its ability to win conflicts, according to a report commissioned by a panel created by the U.S. Congress.

Wake Up, America: China Is a Real Threat

In the last decade, the Chinese regime has shown itself to be anti-democratic, no friend of free markets, a first-class cyber bully and more interested in rewriting or ignoring international norms than in respecting them. Left unchecked, the Beijing method of managing international relations is not likely to make the world a better or safer place.

These Four Countries Are Racing To Compete With China In Outer Space

In the 38th launch of its Satellite Launch Vehicle in February, India sent 104 individual satellites up at once. The country launched its first lunar probe in 2008.

South Korea christened a space launch vehicle in 2013, joining satellites developed by private firms to orbit at low altitudes. Another launch vehicle is coming.


In August, the made-in-Taiwan Formosat-5 satellite went into space to monitor for environmental problems, and a National Space Organization publicist said Thursday the agency is now working on Formosat-7, which would scan for signs of climate change.
