Us vice President pence on Tuesday announced an ambitious plan to send astronauts to the moon within five years, in a bid to make sure the United States becomes the first country in the 21st century to send astronauts to the moon. Although early in the sixties and seventies of the last century the United States by the Apollo program achieve a manned moon landing, but times have changed, burns announced "return to the moon" schedule is considered by public opinion is a little signs of "great leap forward" -- the national aeronautics and space administration (NASA) the aim is to achieve a manned moon landing in 2028, new plan suddenly shortened 4 years; Moreover, the development of the heavy carrier rocket developed by the United States for the "return to the moon" was not successful. Der spiegel, a German weekly, said the us appeared to put security second in order not to let China steal a march. Mr Pence has made no secret of his desire to win the "space race", saying "we are having a space race today, just as we did in the 1960s"."Returning astronauts to the moon within the next five years is an established policy of this administration and of the United States of America." Pence announced the new moon landing schedule during a speech at the national space council meeting at the U.S. space and rocket center in Alabama on Tuesday. To do that, he said, NASA would have to "use all the means necessary." "Let me be clear, the first woman on the moon and the next man will be American astronauts, launched from American soil on American rockets.""" the United States expedites the return of astronauts to the moon program, with the goal of 2024. The trump administration has set the goal of "returning to the moon" as the first step toward a manned mission to Mars in 2017, AFP reported Wednesday. NASA followed up with plans to put a man on the moon by 2028. Now the trump administration is calling for a "sense of urgency," announcing it will accelerate the process from 2028 to 2024. Pence said the original plan was not good enough. "fifty years ago, it took us eight years to go to the moon for the first time. We shouldn't be back in 11 years now.Faced with instructions from the White House, NASA administrator Jim bridenstine immediately accepted. He tweeted: "big news: President trump and vice President pence have directed NASA to return astronauts to the moon within the next five years. Take up the challenge and now let's get to work."But public opinion was surprised by the boldness of the plan. The United States is the only country to put a man on the moon, but has not done so since 1972, bloomberg said. NASA now has no rocket capable of such a mission. New moon landings were launched under George w. bush, but later cancelled by barack Obama over cost. China's progress in space exploration is a major reason why the United States is eager to return to the moon, the report said. 'pence's words amount to a challenge to China's dominance in space,' the article said. 'after becoming the first country to land a probe on the far side of the moon last year, China plans to conduct multiple sampling and return missions and demonstrate the feasibility of establishing a lunar research base.'The Apollo program was the first to land humans on the moon and carried out six manned missions between 1969 and 1972, Reuters said. So far, only two other countries -- the Soviet union and China -- have conducted controlled "soft landings," but both have carried unmanned spacecraft. Pence raised concerns about China, which has landed a probe on the far side of the moon and wants to send astronauts to the moon, the New York times said. He also expressed concern about the United States' current dependence on Russia. Since the retirement of the space shuttle in 2011, the U.S. has relied on Russia to provide transportation to the international space station. "We are also competing with our greatest enemy," pence said, "and that is complacency."
