China urged to establish lunar infrastructure and base by space official.

Yang Mengfei of the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) has called for China to seize the opportunity to build lunar infrastructure using capabilities the country already possesses. He suggests China carry out Earth-Moon space infrastructure planning as soon as possible, including communication, navigation, monitoring, and other services, cultivating new pillar industries and building a China-led international cooperation platform. China faces a critical moment and an opportunity that will "never come again" to lead the Earth-moon space industrial market.
