A race against a stroll

Red China, feeling its oats, boasts of putting a space station into orbit as proof of their emerging superpower status.  Meanwhile, Bigelow Aerospace plans to build a larger station at lower cost and most likely sooner.

The lesson: Red China is not only forty years behind the times, but for their "superpower" bid they're in a space race against a hotel.

Or the Isle of Man.
