China's ambitious space goals: Moon landing, space station expansion, and foreign partnerships.

China plans to land astronauts on the moon before 2030 and expand its orbiting space station, according to officials. The announcement comes amid a rivalry with the US for reaching new milestones in outer space. The US aims to put astronauts back on the lunar surface by the end of 2025. China is first preparing for a "short stay on the lunar surface and human-robotic joint exploration." The country's space agency also introduced three astronauts who will head to the country's space station in a launch scheduled for Tuesday morning.
