If the launch is completed successfully, China would join the United States and the former Soviet Union as the only countries to send manned craft into space.


is that correct?

i thought that Great Britan has too.

The Oct. 15 date was reported by Sina.com, a mainland Web site. It quoted Phoenix TV, a Hong Kong broadcaster that is led by a former Chinese military officer and has close ties to Beijing.
Not particularly funny, but Yahoo is quoting Sina.com, which quoted a Hong Kong TV channel, which supposedly got their information from Beijing.

Talk about fourth hand information.

Okay, what the hell are they going to learn from a bag of seeds that spends 90 minutes in space with "no other scientific equipment?" And why do they need to eat garlic chicken and hot n sour soup if they are only up in space for 90 minutes? Can't the taikonaut just grab a hot dog before lift off and then eat dinner when they back?
