It's an awesome achievement after the Olympic Games. No wonder that the western media propagate 2008 is the year of China.

Have you seen the news article about the successful launch which was released before the actual launch? It was blamed on a "technical error" and undermined the credibility of further news releases.
What do the Chinese call their spacemen? Astronauts, Cosmonauts or ?

Mr. Yinduffy, It's feasible that PRC plan to build in space travelling in China tour package. It's said that UK travelling agencies have promoted this kind of travelling product at 200,000 USD per person. It's a high value-added, capital and technological intensive product!
