Chinese studying space have started to grow, but still I feel more people believe in Astrology and Magic...like Americans who have faith in the face on Mars and the living Elvis on the moon!! . I've often wondered why some of the older people working in the US space program never get any rest, they have worked on the moon missions, the Viking and so on. So if the US is so keep on saving money why don't NASA send some of their cumbersome or costly projects to HongKong , Beijing and other places where they can do it for a cheap and fast and then have some extra money for their other explorations and keep their own jobs and space projects going, plus they can give some of their older staffs a good vacation.
I guess some NASA workers would rather get other projects going and this space-tourism moving before they can take a holiday?

Cassini hope it does great, wishing them luck!!
