– China may plan to attack US satellites from the moon
– Analysts warn that China could use its space power for military purposes
– Experts believe that China’s ambitions in space may be difficult to achieve
The US Space Force commander has raised concerns that China may be planning to target US satellites from the moon, using its growing military capabilities in space. China’s lunar exploration program is seen as a potential threat, with experts warning that the country could use its presence on the moon to launch attacks on critical American satellites in deep space. US officials have expressed worry about China’s rapid advancement in military space and counter-space capabilities, believing that China could potentially use its power in space for military purposes.
As part of its space exploration program, China aims to send astronauts to the moon by the end of the decade, raising concerns that its ambitions may extend to claiming ownership of the moon for economic and military purposes. However, some experts believe that China assuming control of the moon is highly unlikely due to the risks, expenses, and potential provocations that would come with such an action. Despite the growing alarm over China’s military plans in space, there are differing opinions on the feasibility and likelihood of the country’s ability to control the moon and use it for military purposes.
