Oh that's terrible! You know what? I think they're faking the whole thing. There's nobody aboard that spacecraft. It's all controlled from the ground. The whole thing is being shot from a secret studio in the outskirts of Beijing.

... I can't tell sarcasm today -_-"

Americans never went to the moon?

Lol @ Chinese
 
This can also be explained as proof that the Chinese have developed time travel as well!!!!

LOL, very true.
 
They manage propaganda and marketing very effectively in china, it is very difficult to know WTF is actually happening there. Maybe the whole of china is on another planet already...
 
Yeah I know of the "fake landings" stories. I was just asking if he actually believed that :p
