This political cartoon was drawn by Jeff Parker and was published in Florida Today. It was posted on November 20th. The cartoon deals with the Chinese space program and how it has grown increasingly more advance in a very short amount of time. The cartoon is portraying this advancement and showing that the NASA may be interested in combining forces with the Chinese in space exploration. I agree with this message because it shows China's dedication to space exploration and how they have been able to accomplish much of what the United States has done in a much shorter period of time. It also plays along with the fact that the United States borrows so much money from China already and they are now wanting to borrow from their space technology as well.

I thought this cartoon was really cute, and it definitely does a good job at portraying how NASA is so caught up in their own successes that they find it almost impossible to believe that anyone could be doing better than they are.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, this cartoon shows how advanced the Chinese technology is compared to NASA. China is definitely ahead of all the other countries in the space race maybe that's why the US wants to join forces with a nation like China because the US doesn't want competiton.
