Warning! Space Expert Revealed Why China can Beat NASA and SpaceX on the Moon…
Who will win the new race to the Moon?
The United States once seemed the clear favorite, but China’s steady progress has shifted that confidence. Many experts now warn China could arrive first.
So what must NASA and SpaceX do to stay ahead? Let’s find out in today’s episode of Great SpaceX.
The United States secured a decisive victory in the first race to the Moon during the last century. That historic achievement continues to resonate even today, not only in technology but also in spirit and confidence. Experience and determination remain two of the most important advantages for the United States as it enters a new chapter, one that is not only about returning to the Moon but also about establishing a sustainable human presence there.

Yet, while belief in America’s ability to lead remains strong, doubts are beginning to grow. These doubts arise when one compares NASA’s pace of progress, along with its industry partners, to that of its chief rival: China. The contrast becomes sharper when considering not just timelines but also the strategies each side is pursuing.
Dean Cheng, a well-known expert and analyst who has studied China’s space program for years, recently shared his insights in an interview. He reviewed China’s progress and its methodical preparation for landing humans on the Moon, then compared it with NASA’s approach. His conclusion was striking: “At the rate things are going, sadly, it seems quite likely that the Chinese will land on the Moon before NASA can return to the Moon.”

This conclusion is not without reason. It is built on tangible developments that show a growing gap in momentum.
Let us first examine the timeline. On paper, the United States is ahead. NASA, with the support of SpaceX, has targeted 2027 for its first crewed lunar landing under the Artemis program. China, meanwhile, has publicly stated a goal of landing its astronauts before 2030. By schedule alone, America appears to lead.
But the pace of preparation tells a different story. China has made remarkable progress in just the past year, advancing hardware and systems directly tied to its crewed lunar mission. In June, China successfully completed a pad abort test of the Mengzhou spacecraft. This test demonstrated the spacecraft’s emergency escape system, a vital safety measure for protecting astronauts in case of a launch failure. Only weeks later, in early August, China carried out a simulated landing test with its Lanyue lunar lander, building confidence in its ability to safely touch down on the Moon’s surface. Shortly after that, the nation’s upcoming lunar rocket, the Long March 10, achieved a full-duration static fire test with seven YF-100K engines roaring at full power. That successful test was both a literal and symbolic boost to their lunar ambitions.
