The launch is scheduled between 15 and 17 of octobre. That is of course unless the dutch finish their space program first. Since they are first in the build order, the dutch are on the advantage here.

"The Apollo program is not our prime objective. The dutch aim for a victory by spaceship. We have swiss mercenaries standing by to destroy the Chinese spaceship on it's launch platform!" says an anonymous source within the dutch government.

Yeah, but China's words are backed by nuclear weapons. Yours are not. [:p][slay]

Anyway, China is sending people into space.

Still they have a long way to go. The television transmission of the launch was delayed for half an hour - probably because of fear of a failure.
