This event will surely raise the usual questions about space exploration 
again: Why should we go there. IMO, giving a convincing answer to this 
will be key to push space technology in terms of funding and enthusiastic 
brains. Maybe China will enforce its space program so fast to start 
another space race, to Mars for example.
