Next nation to put a human on the moon??

[trickytree]

What's your guess??

I think once china gets serious, there'll be another race, but ultimately I think America.

Just my opinion!!

[Glen]

I dont think it'll be a nation s such, more of a combined effort.

Bravado is too old school IMO

[astroeddie]

I also think the Chinese will land with 3 Taikonauts, not the 2 like the 6 Apollo landings.

The Chinese are coming on leaps and bounds according to website info.

Have to agree with Glen on this one

[mikinio]

i have a friend in china who say's there making big plans

[shaunster]

I think the USA's days as the leader in space are behind them, they simply dont have the money to compete anymore

[Rob]

Its all about our friends in China now.. I think Europe with Russia are also coming along in leaps and bounds. The company space X are going to be key here for the ISS. Nasa are very happy with their efforts. I've been reading and keeping up to date with these guys for the past 3/4 years.. really exciting stuff I have to say

I agree, i don't think it will be USA this time. China or multi-national.

[kidlands]

India....no really, or more likely China.

[Space Cowboy]

I think we can rule out Greece. If the Chinese get there it wont be long before we receive laptops labelled "made on the Moon"

[Psychobilly]

I know its been said before..

But on a lighter note...

At least the takeaways should be sorted by the time the "Brits" get there....

[Glider]

Cats!

It'll be cats with opposable thumbs.

I've seen the advert on the TV and think we should all be worried.

Made me chuckle, but maybe that's my sense of humour.

Another vote for China, but we may only know about it when they return to earth.

[Deneb]

India or the Iranians..or China unless their aiming for Mars.

[MjrTom]

India....no really, or more likely China.

Not if their call centres are anything to go by....

I think you mean too expensive

If any of them have sense no one.

More important things to waste money on at present than a rock collecting expedition to a place which we already know is not worth it.

[Macavity]

Wales: "The Welsh Rocket being launched"!

In the cartoon tradition of Spike Milligan.

Hang on a minute, are talking about a LIVE human???

'Cause that changes everything....

Probably the Chinese, and I hope the man is David Cameron on a one way ticket lol

[Ags]

I hope whoever goes there comes back safely. It seems every Apollo mission had its scare, so I hope that when we go back there, it is for a better reason than merely 'winning' a race.

[Pavel]

I quite agree with Ags that security is one of most important questions related with space expeditions.

Beside: I think that any nation don`t must to be favoured (treat with partiality) and every next multinational mission is good idea.

I'll have to remind you about the board's policy on politics, Kim!

Not wanting to hijack the thread - but an intesting addendum to the question would be - not only Who? but When?

[Neilius]

I would have to say China and within the next 10 years. I really hope it happens because theres every chance it may kickstart a new space race.
