SPACE RACE: EAST vs WEST — WHO’S REALLY WINNING?
China just did what seemed impossible:
Built a fully operational, crewed space station — Tiangong — in just 2 YEARS.
Cost? $10–12B.
Compare that to the ISS:
10+ years. $150B+. 15 countries. Endless red tape.
The difference?
Efficiency. Centralization. Ruthless execution.
While the West holds press conferences, debates budgets, and issues tenders...
China builds.
No gridlock. No delays. No politics.
This isn’t just about rockets.
It’s about how governments function.
And it begs a serious question:
Are U.S. & EU public space budgets being burned in bureaucracy?
Or is it time to rethink how we fund the final frontier?
Because at this rate…
The East won’t just reach the stars — they’ll own them.
