Will China Prevail In The Race To Space?

Doubts lingered as China’s Chang’e 6 mission aimed to land on the far side of the moon. However, they’ve successfully brought back its rock and soil samples. This success has sparked an intense moon race with the US who has been prominently known to be at the top of its A-game in space exploration. We dive into the tensions of this space race with Clayton Swope, the Deputy Director of Aerospace Security Project at Centre for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS).
