[edit] Footprints on icon
On the logo for the program, those grey spots. Do they look like footprints to anyone? Roswell Crash Survivor 03:26, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
- They certainly do. That was my first thought. :) --EarthPerson 00:49, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Chinese Lunar Exploration Program
The name of the full program is Chinese Lunar Exploration Program and not Chang'e. Chang'e is just part of the full program, specifically the Chang'e 1 vessel. So all things Chang'e 1 related are now on a specific page, and general info is here. Ricnun 01:03, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] International Perception
Would be interesting to add a section regarding international perception regarding China beginning moon exploration. I've seen several interviews regarding such but lack specific sources, mainly ones from international speakers both civilian and UN state represenatives and of course press. Main thing I've been seeing is regarding "...600million living in poverty and they have aspirations of a space program," amongst others. Then there are those who speak favorably for mineral exploration. I think it interesting to add as sort of a section regarding, "Social Perspectives." Main thing would be keeping it info from cited/public noteworthy sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ga1lyons (talk • contribs) 03:46, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Industrial projects
There's some mention of iron and helium-3 - the article should explain whether the planned Moon landers and base will actually involve industrial exploitation or whether this is just a long-range desire of some of the people involved. 70.15.116.59 04:52, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Skeptics
Thre are American skeptics that will tell you America has never been to the moon. Their thought is that is was all made up in a Hollywood basement. I would love to hear if this irreverent phobia is also taking place now, in China. The contrasts might make the basis for some work in psychology or news article. If nothing else, show how similar we are. comment added by Imlookingnow 20:42, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
- Vanilla malt: Is this exploration program really going to make vanilla malt on the moon?This sounds like a joke to meWai Hong 18:35, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] China says lunar image authentic
Anyone know the story on this? "China's space program has defended a photo of the moon's surface taken by its lunar probe as authentic, dismissing critics who suggested it had been copied from a similar image captured by a U.S. orbiter." -- http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071203/ap_on_re_as/china_lunar_skeptics_2 Please followup at Talk:Chang'e 1#China says lunar image authentic Ewlyahoocom (talk) 19:24, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
well, NASA pointed out alignment errors in the picture visible on the overlapping edges of the photo that was merge into a complete map. those overlapping edges (which are far worst on google earth which take picture from many source) are different from NASA's so it was likely taken from a seperate source. actually it is a silly arguement, how different can you expect the lifeless moon to look? O_o it is unfortunate that any difference are actually technical errors and largely nothing new was observe... it is still very much the same moon, no one been playing golf there for a long long time. :P Akinkhoo (talk) 06:49, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Exploration of the Moon, People's Republic of China.jpg
Image:Exploration of the Moon, People's Republic of China.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
