"U.S. and China Collaborate on Space Emergency Hotline"

The United States Space Force is considering establishing a hotline with China to ensure communication in case of space emergencies. The U.S. is concerned about China's increasing capabilities in space, including its plans to land astronauts on the Moon and build a permanent base. China's lack of transparency and response to warnings from the U.S. Space Command has raised concerns. The U.S. hopes that a hotline could open up communication lines, but it remains uncertain if China will be willing to engage.
