In today's space race, watch out for China

When China decided to test an anti-satellite missile in 2007, the impact shattered not just the target satellite but any illusions that China did not have military intentions in space and the capabilities to attain them.

The United States is still ahead in space development, but China has been making impressive progress in expanding its own program - and it has not gone unnoticed.

"I think anyone who's familiar with the space business, and mainly the history, our history in the space business over the years, would have to be absolutely amazed at the advancements that China has made in such a short period of time," said Gen. Kevin Chilton, head of the U.S. Strategic Command, which is in charge of the military's space operations.
