msaleem-stumbl rated 8 months ago- From the page: "Fifty years after the launch of Sputnik left the United States scrambling to play catch-up in the first Space Race, US scientists fear history may be repeating itself as Asia emerges as the rising force in space exploration."

- Asia could win next 'Space Race', US scientists fear via Innovation Watch, in PhysOrg.com
While the achievements of space programs run by China, Japan and India are modest in comparison to the milestones set by the United States and former Soviet Union, experts at a recent conference in Pasadena believe it is only a matter of time before Asia leads the field. The numbers of new scientists in Asian countries are eclipsing those in the United States. In 2004, around 500,000 engineers graduated in China, 200,000 in India and only 70,000 in the US, according to a report from the National Academy of Sciences released this year. Asia could win next 'Space Race', US scientists fear At the game that it unleashed to globalize its capitalist economic model of society the West could well end up losing the advantage that it benefitted from during the last 500 years. For sure, it's not really the West, it's Western big capital holders who through the Trilateral Commission unleashed globalization. Their idea was to expand the market for their productions and their investments. With China and India it's not only a disadvantage of mass that the West now confronts it's two refined cultures and populations that aspire to attain the material well-being enjoyed exclusively by the West as reflected into their windows on the world. The equation of globalization could as well be summarized as follows: EAST = MASSIVE POPULATION + CULTURAL REFINEMENT + WILL TO DO versus WEST = MARGINAL POPULATION + CULTURAL CONFUSION + WILL TO RECEIVE Do Western big capital holders have a chance to maintain their dominance on world markets in the light of that equation? China's recently created "China Investment Co" with a registered capital of $US 200 billion dwarfs the biggest Western financial institutions and foreshadows a future where Western big capital holders could one day be at the mercy of new breeds of capital holders... What I mean to show is that a plan is always at the mercy of the unknown and it's outcome is most often never realized. But in the meantime this globalization of modernity offers a unique chance for all the people on earth to discover their belonging to one and the same whole: humanity.
