NASA's Bolden Speaks On Future Mars Mission, Chinese Moon Landing 154
MarkWhittington writes "During an interview with USA Today on the eve of the arrival of the Mars Rover Curiosity, NASA administrator Charles Bolden had some interesting thoughts on why a humans-to-Mars mission should be international and not American-led, how the world should react positively to the Chinese beating America back to the moon, and what he would do (or rather not do) if NASA were to have an 'unlimited' budget."

I'd send all of Congress on a space mission. To land on the Sun. I'll tell them they'll go at night and land on the dark side.

The Chinese are not beating the USA "back to the moon". They are going for the first time. The USA has already beaten them by more than forty years.
